Hello, Interstellar...

The "Mujahid" script is tracking in the Top 5 of all screenplays this morning, in company with the likes of Interstellar and The Grand Budapest Hotel. It's the highest ranked of scripts available via Kindle and the least expensive. The higher this goes, the better chance we have of getting it made. Your purchases and reviews are greatly appreciated. From a letter last night to a potential director and producer:

"Coming on the heels of the Boston Marathon bombing (conducted by two brothers) and the recent terrorist hostage crisis in Australia—not to mention the horrors perpetrated around the globe in the name of religious zealotry—the “Mujahid” story helps fill a need for catharsis, for a vision of justice and restored innocence, for a restoration in our confidence in what life once was and can be again—should we be courageous enough to pursue it.

"And the film will no doubt require some courage on the part of all involved, from funding through distribution, as one of the characters invokes Islam explicitly; the Islamic State salute is exchanged by two of the characters. While this may cause many who might otherwise participate in the project to shy away for fear of retaliation or the threat thereof, this is exactly the kind of film that must be made today, proudly and without apology—particularly in the face of the recent caving of Hollywood to the likes of toothless North Korea. Stories such as this must be made now—unless we wish to continue the slide towards the industry’s submission to full censorship-by-intimation by any group who takes offense at content which they find offensive. Judging by the readers’ passionate reactions to the script so far (note the reviews), such a story is desperately needed and—if well made—will be widely appreciated and cheered as the credits roll."Mujahid
