Show #17                                                        6/1/2021

Tonight's Guest Is James Russell,

"James is a Canadian based writer with twenty-seven screenplays and a producer of five short films and a feature film in post-production. An award-winning photographer for ten years, James began producing his own screenplays in the late 90s. His company has four features in various stages of development - including CUSTODY DENIED, an Erin Brockovich-style thriller."... The Why? - I began looking for a family court project to produce about 5 years ago after my ex. cut me off from my two lovely grandchildren. I connected with Maryann when I saw a post about her recently published book. Both Maryann Petri and her story inspired me so much that I asked her if my company could option her story and her book. She graciously agreed. I spend 3 months writing the script, which was inspired by Maryann's story but is more generic - focusing on family court corruption, CPS, crooked lawyers and judges, parental alienation, incompetent social workers and court- appointed psychologists. We hope to attract an A-list actress to the project (Lisa Edelstein, or Amy Adams, or Bryce Dallas Howard) then raise the $1.9m we need to begin shooting.
