all scripts are sold through agents…you can’t just mail a script to a movie producer.

and a lot of producers will only buy scripts from people who live in los angeles; that’s how closed-minded hollywood is.

about ten thousand scripts are submitted to american movie producers each year; it’s a tough business.

and no producer buys just-ideas from unknown writers; have to have a finished script to sell….and even if a producer is willing to buy somebody’s script, you have to “pitch” it to the producer in person; tell the producer in person how the script would make a good movie.
