"IFP’s Script to Screen ConferenceWriters in CollaborationMarch 7, 2009New York, NYWriter/Director Ira Sachs (Forty Shades of Blue, Married Life) moderated a discussion on the collaborative writing process. He started the conversation by saying that everything he does is about how well he works with other people. “There’s almost nothing that isn’t about trying to negotiate between your own instincts and what you share and look for from others…This panel is about how you work communally, but still have a vision.” Below are highlights from the discussion with writers who collaborate with either a partner or a team for film and/or television.(Photo by Brian Geldin)Moderator:Ira Sachs, Writer/Director, Married Life< "

"A nice little character study. All of the acting is excellent and the events would work well as a play. Suspenseful and pleasant at the same time, more films should be made like this one. "

"Any movie that puts a human face on Iran and the Iranian people is a good thing. Plus, my dentist is Iranian. So is my congressperson, come to think of it. Persepolis covers the history of the country from the fall of the Shah up to a while ago. They don't make movies like Married Life anymore; only, this time, they did. The thing I like about Scorpian King 2 is that the hero carries his sword in a leather scabbard on his back and every time that he draws it, it makes a metallic rasping sound - forget the leather - followed by a ringing twang! I'll probably never take the time to write about The Life Before Her Eyes (2008), but I see 500 movies a year and maybe one out of the 500 affects me like this one did. A story that gets it just right, for me. Watched The Darwin Awards (2006) again. Was entertained all the way through, same as the first time. I wonder if this film is developing a following; it deserves one. Winona and Fiennes have some chemistry. My Canadian friend Matt the ... "

"Married Life, Paranoid Park, and Snow Angels: three independently produced American films, all being released this weekend by indie arms of major corporations, and three films that, according to Anthony Kaufman, are surprisingly serious about the “notion that we must come to terms with our complicity in other people’s pain, as well as our own.” In this piece at Filmcatcher, Kaufman wonders what prompted filmmakers Ira Sachs, Gus Van Sant and David Gordon Green to tackle similar themes in very different ways. “Could it be some long-gestating post-9/11 reflection, or a reaction to the Iraq war and its horrendous collateral damages, from Abu Ghraib and Haditha? Or is it a newfound understanding of globalization, that we are all interconnected and responsible for each other?” I haven’t seen Snow Angels. I saw Married Life months ago, but I really didn’t care for it and don’t think I could consider it seriously. But Paranoid Park is a really interesting film, one I wish I had time to wr ... "
