Uncover the Untold Secrets of Screenwriting with Jack Epps in This Exclusive Go Into The Story Interview
MSU had one screenwriting class and it was taught by Jim Cash. The class was full and I had to talk my way into the class. A bit of fate on both of our parts. Luckily for both of us, Jim wasn’t a hard ass. We didn’t start working together for about 5 or 6 years after that class, but we stayed in touch.
Scott: We’re talking about Michigan State, the early ’70s at this point?
Jack: Yes, around 1971 or so.
Scott: This is even before Syd Field had put out “Screenplay, The Foundations of Screenwriting.”
