Being John Malkovich (1999) (Blu-ray film review).
I haven’t seen the film ‘Being John Malkovich’ (1999) for some time.

Crazy Screenwriting Secrets by Weiko Lin (book review)
I’m not sure if I agree with author and scriptwriter Weiko Lin’s book title of ‘Crazy Screenwriting Secrets’ as much of it is sensible things that can be applied to all types of fiction.
