"As the writer of a "biopic" for the screen you face many challenges, perhaps the greatest of which being the discovery of a life you think others will find fascinating. As the motion picture industry passes the century mark you might wonder "Who's left?", all the great lives already having been played out on the big screen.
Take heart. Much has been overlooked, if not in the major stories of history, perhaps in the lesser alleyways, or even local to your town. Maybe you can make a better movie of a life already chronicled cinematically because you have an interesting angle on it. Perhaps new information has come to light."
