As the co-writer, director and co-producer of ROCK BOTTOM the movie, I'm beginning this blog to keep a record of the day to day workings of making a mega movie hit, (we HOPE)!
Rock Bottom has been in development for about two years...but now we are close to being "greenlit" (green for money) and it's getting EXCITING! There's too much to tell about what has gone on to this point but suffice it to say that "Development Hell" is called that for a reason. ASIDE: someone once said that making a movie is NOT all about opening night. You've got to enjoy the ride cause there may never be an opening night! We take that to heart as we "enjoy the ride" (ie; laugh or cry) EVERY day in development.
Rock Bottom is a NEO NOIR action comedy. The script is getting great reviews and shortly I'll post a synopsis and so forth. It's HOT! It's FUN! It WILL be a hit. ASIDE: one must believe this of their projects OR ELSE ... it will never get made! We have gotten so many people telling us that they're in LOVE with the script that we finally must admit...it's pretty good - damn it!
First rule of filmmaking (or maybe second) : NEEDED: A GREAT script and, tho' it's hard to remember at times, YOU must LOVE it and BELIEVE in it! Okay....that's today...I'll write more tomorrow and till then...Rock ON ....ROCK BOTTOM!
Hi Wendy, I would love to see the script since it's raw days when I first read it. And can't wait to see what happened to the cast! I have loved the movies you've made to date that I've seen, best of luck, wish I was there to take part!
