Petition Addressing the Texas Judicial System Requests Support through William Sadler’s “Dumbass”
Will Hollywood be a Reason for Change in the Injustice against Men and Women Prisoners?
William Sadler – 19th March 2021 – An upcoming movie depicting the injustice that men and women had to endure in the state penitentiaries in Texas has been inundated with calls from more than 2000 women urging the production company owned by Hollywood actor, producer and director William Sadler and Adam Sandler, to stick to the real issues behind the Texas Judicial system. A petition was signed by many people that include attorneys, university professors, politicians and family members of the many men and women that are suffering in the state penitentiaries. The idea behind the petition is for the William Sadler production company and Hollywood to stick to the true story about the injustices happening in the state run prisons. It is said that the state has sent more inmates to prison than during the Soviet Union did during their political uprising.
PREMISE: Adam Sandler writes letters and saves numerous women from the monotony of prison life, and later when he gets into trouble with a drug cartel they return the favor by rescuing him.
SETTING: Contemporary, Gatesville Texas. There are four women’s prisons located in Gatesville. And of course, Texas is famous for putting everyone in prison for a long time for little or no reason. The number of women in Texas prisons has doubled in the last ten years. Why don’t we have the “Adam Sandler” character… sending letters to women in prison and being their friend and trying to help them adjust, giving them hope… and when they get out of prison he picks them up so they don’t have to ride the smelly bus back home… but his pickup truck is a junker, smoking and sputtering … worse than the bus. But his heart is in the right place… He’s the last “chivalrous” man on earth.
It is said in the petition that many of the signatories were left distraught to find that many of the first time offenders for violations such as drug peddling have received disproportionate sentences. While some argue that a lenient sentence like rehabilitation would have proven much more inexpensive and an effective solution in tackling this gross miscarriage of justice. The petition was discovered by the women when the screenplay of the movie was donated to all the 580 prisons run by private organizations funded by the state government. It is much more difficult for women who are given much harsher penalties for a violation such as carrying small amount of drugs like Marijuana which coincidentally is legal in 21 states.

About William Sadler’s “Dumbass” Movie
The movie “Dumbass” revolves around the protagonist writing letters to prison inmates to keep their spirits high during their time in prison; only for them to help the main character who gets into trouble with a drug cartel and saving him at the end. The petition urges the production company, William Sadler and Adam Sandler to take this issue seriously due to the hardships faced by women inside prison rather than making light of the situation for their own profits.

There is no number 1 on the first page. The page numbers begin on page 2. Why? Because FADE IN means the beginning or page 1 – which is another reason it’s so darn important to write FADE IN!
No FADE IN or FADE OUT. I don’t care what so-called gurus are saying, use these two! FADE IN tells the reader the story is meant for the big screen. Without FADE IN, the reader is guessing as to the intended audience. Is it the silver screen, TV, stage or radio? FADE OUT means THE END. Don’t use both. THE END is for novels. Screenplays end with FADE OUT! Don’t use it prematurely or the reader will think the story has ended! Only use these two at the beginning and end of the script!
William Sadler – A short script means something is missing and the story doesn’t work. A long script means the writer hasn’t studied screenplay writing or they’d know less is more!
Is there a page cheat? Does the writer have a 90 page script where they’ve triple spaced before every new primary slug indicator? If so, the script’s too short to produce.
Jake meets Evelyn for lunch at the Brown Derby (continually great use of iconic Los Angeles locations!). He has both the obituary page and the envelope she mailed the check in). Note the lush reds in this scene, the booths, the carnation on the table — very startlingly sexual compared to the sepia tones of the rest of the movie. Also note the background music: “The Way You Look Tonight,” which Jake will hum in the next scene, a subconscious indication that he is thinking of Evelyn. Evelyn is dressed in all black with a veil — the Black Widow. The red carnation from the vase against her dress looks like the classic marking of that spider, and her veil looks like a spider’s web. Because of course, she’s a prime SUSPECT. In fact, you could say she’s the major suspect, because her husband was apparently having an affair, and besides, this is film noir, and the women are always up to no good. Gittes confronts Evelyn on what she knows, and we learn that her maiden name is Cross. She stammers the C, a CLUE. At the end of the meal, Gittes tells Evelyn that her husband was murdered because of his knowledge that the city water was being stolen.
William Sadler – (Note that there’s no real reason that Ida Sessions would know anything about the Albacore Club, but this is what Hitchcock called a “ham sandwich”: a plot hole that you only think about after the movie, when you’re in your robe and standing in your kitchen about to bite into a ham sandwich….)
Ida tells Jake she was hired to play Mrs. Mulwray, and wants someone to know that she had no idea the role would lead to Mulwray’s death. When Jake presses her to say who hired her, she refuses, then tells him to look at the obituary column if he wants to find “one of them.” Jake looks at the column. but it’s meaningless to him; but we get a glimpse of the name Jasper Lamar Crabbe (PLANT/CLUE) which is unique enough that Jake, and hopefully we, will remember it later. Ida’s clearly afraid of whoever hired her, which creates unease.
Note that when Jake gets serious on the phone, it’s Walsh who instantly shuts up and comes to the desk to listen to the phone call, while Duffy remains lazing in his chair. I think that Walsh and Duffy represent the two sides of Jake: the serious, smart, almost geeky Walsh, who’s both deliberate and intuitive; and the flashy, crass charmer, Duffy. Having minor characters reflect qualities of the protagonist is a great way to develop and illuminate the character of your protagonist.
