  • "Well, I'll definitely be at the next screenwriters' meetup. As far as literary writing ( hope I said that right ) goes I'm not sure I have it within me to create something that doesn't stand a chance of receiving at least the pulitzer, so I'm not sure if I'll attend. Will you? And what is your favorite film?-- I think it's awesome that you review movies."
