The Birthday Party with Charles Randolph | Development Hell

from Revisionist History · host Pushkin Industries

Before Charles Randolph won an Oscar for writing “The Big Short,” he adapted a memoir called “The Birthday Party”: the true story of a white man kidnapped by three young Black men. Is there a way to bring a story like that to screen, in a way that's honest and authentic? Randolph gives us a masterclass on a screenwriter's many minefields.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
