“Death of an Ortolan: A Gripping Tale of Guilt, Gourmet Secrets, and Redemption in the Shadows”
So it’s not that you should favor “easy reads” over complex ones. It’s that you must be honest with yourself about if you have the skill level to pull a complex script off. Cause complex scripts written poorly fall apart faster than easy reads do.
The reader who recommended “Ortolan” to me was right. This is a good script. It’s the closest we’re going to get to a modern day Shawshank Redemption. This movie is about friendship at its core. It also has this mystery component of did Reed murder the victim or didn’t he? And it serves both of those plot lines with this fun little side-dish of cooking.
