Comment on Writers’ Plight and Miscellaneous stuff.. by vivek raju

I was thinking collaborative writing is not much discussed or much followed in Indian films. When more a group of people write a screenplay together..we may not get an award winning movie, but it can surely make the script gripping and entertaining which is needed for big budget films for the commercial success. At least, it may not give unwatchable dumb films like blue, cc2c, luck,.

George Lucas, Spielberg and many other successful directors and producers follow this collaborative writing to make their script perfect without any loose ends.

I feel that these big budget movies needs this kind of writing to make their films atleast watchable..

In tamil cinema, few directors are using collaborative writing like shankar(who used to work with Writer Sujatha), K.V.Anand(cinematographer turned director, works with the writer-duo Suba). Their films may not be gr8 and liked by critics, but they manage to hook the audience to the full 2.5 hours and give good returns to the producers.

The Son of the Bride is not a thriller, Darin is in this movie also and it’s a great one, was also nominated for the Oscar but didn’t win
