SCREENWRITING & SCRIPTS

SCREENPLAYS – SELECTED SCRIPTS

I have been writing screenplays, short or feature films, for many years now. It’s a testament to my stubborn nature more than my actual talent that I continue to write and produce my own stuff. But, I enjoy it very much and a wise person once said, you’ve got to have something to do and something to wish for.

I have written hundreds of short film scripts, outlines, treatments (isn’t that the same as outlines?) and many feature films too. So, more for posterity and possible future reference I have decided to include a select number of produced and unproduced short scripts here. They are produced, unless stated by my company, Fix Films Ltd.

GETTING BACK MR HUNT (2005)

My first produced screenplay involves a downtrodden employee getting revenge on his boss.
