Matt informed me that he has a few of his works up over here:

I've discovered I particularly abhor this man because not only does he write with flair and panache, he can also bust out a camera and shoot like a freakin' tiger. An explosively, ridiculously talented person. How utterly irritating! (joking, of course!)

I found "Dishes and Work," in particular, beautiful and strangely affecting.

Matt, can I email you ALL my scripts from now until the end of time for you to direct please?!

I liked the writing. I'm not sure how "filmic" it is, since it relies primarily on dialogue, which was good. But it would allow for some funny little editing gags.

Not sure exactly what it's trying to say, or what the point of the twist was, but I think it's a pretty decent start. And very easy to film.

Remember to stay genuine, both to yourself and to your audience. Too much philosophy buried in a simplistic short film, or any film, will alienate and no matter how much you talk or explain, you will never speak louder than the work itself. If you have to explain why you did it, it didn't work.

Thanks so much for posting this, Scott! And thanks, Jeff, for mentioning my script to Scott and everything else you've done. I'm really glad you all liked the script!

I've finished the movie just last night, and I'll be uploading it sometime tonight to YouTube and Vimeo.

The shoot went well! Some things have changed from the script, as I re-write as I go along, but it's fairly close to the script. I hope people enjoy it.

Oh, and Jeff, I'd love to read any of your scripts. Feel free to e-mail them to me any time!
