Very. I'm going to give Lisa Nandy the benefit of the doubt, but not the industry. Sadly, experience has shown me just how deep the prejudices go. If you're working class and disabled, the message 'Not Wanted' rings loud.

I remember reading somewhere that Sidney Lumet 'cut in camera' and you could put hus trims in an envelope. A master! Knowing what you want to say and how to say it concisely is a constant goal. And now, time to rewatch 12 Angry Men and be reminded how it's done.

How about opening Final Draft, reading what you wrote yesterday, sighing and deleting all of it because you just realised you don't need any of it. Cutting is writing. #screenwriting
