Ron, I am confused at the list. Most are listed as Managers and some as specifically talent agents. I'm guessing that all the managers are also talent managers, right? I do see some literary agents who may be able to rep screenplays to studios but the talent agents and managers probably will not do that, right? I also see, however, that it also lists genres for each so I'm not sure how that works for talent agents and managers.

@Ron Newcomb Yes, that makes sense as far as it goes. But most literary reps have only handle certain genre and screenplays may not be part of their world - they have contacts with publishing houses, not film studios, as well as expertise specific to written works. And, even if they do, it would be to sell a script, not to get a project greenlit or sell a film that has already been made. That is a different kind of agent.

I'm not a Tarantino fan but I believe it was he who said, "you're not telling a story; you're making a movie." I identify with that, although referring to it as telling a story is unavoidable. Some great films are all about the story while others are more about the imagery, etc. But the point is that the medium of film is to create an experience that goes beyond merely telling a story - I think that is what he was saying. So, while film is only one way to "tell a story," it is the film making that interests me, not alternative ways of telling a story. Also, the first law of screen writing is "don't tell, show." The story can be told by a mixture of means including visual and textual - captions, voice narration, etc. But the less of these supplements is required and used, generally, the better the movie. That's my 2 cents.

What do you mean you missed me?
