I've been lurking for a while, but I created an account to say how much I've been enjoying these screenwriter interviews and especially this one with Julia Hart. She seems to be interested in many of the subjects that fascinate me (relationships between siblings, how women with a different social status interact, humanity in difficult circumstances). The way she talks about The Keeping Room makes me very excited to see it. I can't wait to hear about her other projects. Thank you Scott and thank you Julia.

Anna, glad you have enjoyed the interviews and especially the one with Julia Hart. "The Keeping Room" is unique in many ways and it's a testament to the story and the quality of Julia's writing that it's moving forward. Always difficult to get any movie made, but especially one that goes against so-called conventional wisdom in some striking ways. I can't wait to see the movie. It's exciting to see a talent like Julia break onto the scene and we can all look forward to seeing where her creativity takes her, hopefully for many years to come. Thanks, too, for taking the plunge! I know there are a lot of lurkers to the site, so it's always nice to see a new [virtual] face.

Anna and Scott - Thank you both so much for your kind words! I truly appreciate them. I can't wait to see the movie either! And hopefully more like it - we women need more heroes in the dark while we eat our popcorn.
