Welcome to Season 2 of The Film Mechanics Screenwriting Podcast w/ Deri Tyton. We have the privilege of interviewing the successful gangster genre screenwriter/filmmaker, Marcus Carothers. Marcus and I met back in 2006 when he starred in a film I produced entitled, LOVE BONES, and since then he has taken off and created a huge and growing fanbase for his own films. This episode you'll get to hear Marcus and I discuss:
1) How His Screenwriting Process Always Begin With Relationships
2) Why He's NEVER Wrote in Final Draft
3) What It Will Take To Leave A Legacy In The Industry
Marcus has an undeniably rich story where he was a childhood star who wound up doing "time" as his grandmother, who believed in him no matter what, continued to pay his Screen Actor Guild union dues.
