One of the comments that multiple reviewers had about my original screenplay was that my lead character didn't have a "character arc." Well, yes, that's true. In the script, she first came to light as a victim of an unfortunate circumstance and strove to do better. As one would expect any contributing member of the human race. Turns out, that's not what people want to see.
Nope, to have a "character arc" she has to be a generally rotten person who makes bad choices but is basically good inside - she just needs a good and regular thrashing by the Forces of Nature (here played by my computer keyboard) to make her see the Way, the Truth, and the Light. So - Stubborn, Revision 1 is coming along nicely. Slowly. But coming along.
Oh - and I promised you the first scene of Stubborn. Here it is sans dialogue. Hubby has (hopefully) found a studio that will do a professional job of dubbing it in.
