many newsaskew forum members cannot post here due to the $2 rule, snot the $2, it's the credit card/paypal thing, they just can't do it... i've promised to post these for them, but told them i couldn't positively be sure they'd be answered:
1. Boxers, Briefs, or Free Balling? (Jules)
this may have been asked and answered in the past but -
2.In light of some of the projects where he's had a hand in a script that eventually made it to screen, but without a writing credit for him...would he ever
a) write something and let someone else direct
or
b) Direct something that someone else has written? (spiph)
3. Behind every great man is an even greater woman. We all know that there has been considerable ink on Kevin himself, but there has been very little ink about Jen Schwalbach (sp?) herself. Which is weird, considering that she used to be a former journalist herself and that so much of Kevin's work of late has been attributed to her (he did say that JERSEY GIRL is a valentine to his wife). And having both husband and wife as writers should lead to collaboration on something other than a child. So why don't we hear a lot about/from her? There are so many angles to a story, and it would be cool to hear from her perspective.
So what I propose, and hopefully this'll reach Kevin's ears, is that maybe in the future, we could maybe get some posting on the messageboards from her, or maybe she'll write a book or a magazine or newspaper column (I suppose since now that they live in L.A. now, she could get her old job back at USA TODAY) or somthing along those lines. Maybe her pre-Kevin articles are available online or something. Point is, some of us, myself included, would like to read more from the P.O.V. of Jen. Is it in the cards, or should we even bother asking? (ksskks)
