Sunset Boulevard. It’s so good.

To continue the list, I just watched “Let them all talk” (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10808832) which I found, seeing who is in it, a little (a lot actually) disappointing. But it’s about writers/writing/publishing so it should be on the list. 😉

Just watched Julie & Julia, and I loved it! I connect to the pre-success Julie on an oceans-deep level. Because I’ve recently started a blog and no one’s reading it. Not even my mother lol. Just subscribed by the way, ’cause I need to feel like I’m a part of something. Anyway, great list!

Thank you.

In reply to Ali Nicholas. As luck would have it, I happened to come across the title of the movie set in the woods just the other day, and it's Secret Window starring Johnny Depp. It was actually a trailer on a DVD of, I believe, Something's Gotta Give. The scenery looks absolutely marvellous.

I do enjoy the film 'Stranger Than Fiction'. Plenty going on, and some interesting ways to develop character - and narration! Thank you for sharing these, I have not seen many of them.

“there’s a new one out with Melissa McCarthy”

You mean ‘Can you ever forgive me?’

Great list! Misery is probably my all-time favourite movie about writing/writers. Other favourites are The Words with Bradley Cooper, Something’s Gotta Give starring Jack Nicholson, As Good As It Gets, again with Jack Nicholson, Limitless, again with Bradley Cooper (the initial scenes especially), and there’s a new one out with Melissa McCarthy I want to see. I also want to see Wonder Boys and Adaptation starring Nicholas Cage. I’ve also heard of another one that’s set in the woods with this guy but I can’t remember the title or main actor (Neeson?). As far as I’m concerned, there’s never too many movies about writers and writing!
