After a nearly 3 year long search, Johnny Depp's production company has at last found a screenwriter to adapt 'Dark Shadows' for the big screen.
“Nobody knows anything,” says William Goldman, writer of such Oscar winning scripts as Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid and All The President’s Men. I ran across it again recently in an article in England’s superb music magazine Mojo on the film Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, possibly the most (and in a way wonderfully) horrid and inane movie ever made and a flop of staggering proportions.
Yeah, right…. You and everybody else, including me. If that’s your ambition, by now I am sure you’ve encountered the same thing I’ve run into when one mentions it to people — just about everyone has an idea for a movie that they’re sure is a winner. And many of them think they can write a script that will surely hit the silver screen, and then fortune and maybe even fame well follow.
