Change is not a choice.
More from Adaptation.
Robert McKee I'll tell you a secret. The last act makes the film. Wow them in the end, and you've got a hit. You can have flaws, problems, but wow them in the end, and you've got a hit. Find an ending, but don't cheat, and don't you dare bring in a deus ex machina. Your characters must change, and the change must come from them. Do that, and you'll be fine.
Amelia Kavan I love you too, you know.
Charlie Kaufman The script I'm starting, it's about flowers. No one's ever done a movie about flowers before. So there are no guidelines...
Donald Kaufman What about "Flowers for Algernon"?
Charlie Kaufman Well, that's not about flowers. And it's not a movie.
Donald Kaufman Ok, I'm sorry, I never saw it.
