I had dinner with Rod last Friday and he gave me his first impressions of my first draft of the script. Rod Pocowatchit will star in and co-produce “Bleeding Wichita”.
He knew that this was a rough first draft and that it definitely needs tightening. He did think that is was a cool story and he commented on liking some of the individual scenes very much (Frank and the city workers, Eddie in the car).
And, he really loved that this film is a love story at it’s heart.
I explained in depth how I saw a lot of the film playing out, so I felt he got a better feel for what I’m trying to do with this thing. It’s a black comedy for sure, but it will have some tender moments… I hope?
He’s going to re-read it with a red pen and let me know all the mistakes… I have names “flip flopped” and a lot of other crap like that….
