After she finds divorce papers, a desperate make-up artist goes to extreme measures to turn herself into her husbands ideal woman, but when she discovers that he actually dreams of becoming a woman she has to face what is really keeping them together.
This sounds like an interesting story to me. May I ask, does her husband want to become a transgendered lesbian? I find her husband's wanting a divorce but then your saying that something's keeping them together a bit confusing.

While visiting America, a young British academic (who has an inflated sense of his own entitlement) must strive to prevent his liaison with a besotted, underage runaway from being uncovered in order to preserve his much-loved career and evade prison.
Hi Craig. Thanks. I like your take and, yes, a single adjective to state his flaw would be better. Not comfortable with 'pompous' as my protagonist is quite charming and natural in manner. To me, that word conjures up someone…

I'm entering my screenplay in the Academy Nicholl Fellowship this week. Although they are obliged to read my script (twice), they have asked for a logline. It doesn't have to state the genre. Any feedback from the group will be…

‘The only straight player on an all-gay football team is engaged to the daughter of a disapproving, homophobic dinosaur. With his team aiming for the final, he struggles for his father-in-law’s blessing, who just so happens to be the league’s top referee’
I like your take on this, Sydney. I think that making the father-in-law actively seek to prevent their wedding ups the stakes considerably.

Hi Anon. Re: think Pygmalion/Lolita. I think that anything that saves words while evoking some kind of recognition in the reader - and an idea of the film's genre - can be useful when done well. I'm not saying that…

I mean - Karen!!! Why would you bother commenting on my conversation if all you have to say is that you possess some sort of superior knowledge. Not helpful at all. Surely there must be others more deserving of your…

DPG, grammatically, it does say he's in America and with a runaway. But I'll take your suggestion that it's nevertheless unclear she's American. As an academic, he has not only his career to worry about but also his reputation. Thanks…
