I've been feeling this way for a few weeks. I've got a lot going on at home and work and really want to smoke again, even if it's just a one off smoke.

I stay in a small town and it seems like everyone here smokes. About an hour ago there was a guy ahead of me smoking a joint and the smell was amazing I wanted to catch up with him and ask for a puff but yeah, that would be weird but damn I really want some herbal remedy rn

Hey,

I'm curious how the legal side of adapting say Romeo & Juliet would work. Baz Luhrmann did this already but is this public domain material or is there a distant relative we need to go through to get permission?

Shakespeare's plays have been adapted time and time again and hopefully will be until the end of time. I have an adaptation but is this a ground floor project without permission or can I legally take it places?

Do you have any fine examples of a well written treatment and what's your normal page count for one?

This is my first ever attempt at a treatment. 3 pages. I know theres a lot more to add I'm just not sure what at this stage.

I have posted this before to amazing feedback and want to really push this script forward and have it entered into the Niccoll this year.

Hello.

I'm not spoiling it for anyone but I've watched this film three times now and I can't get the film or script out of my head, because when broken down it's actually quite a boring, slow film.

I'm no expert on the matter but is this film as good as everyone thinks it is. Will it sweep the Oscars?

Can someone actually explain the sequence of acts as there doesn't seem to an awful lot of differentiation between them to me.

Does the script make this a great film or the director?

EDIT: I do actually love this film.
