- "Female-driven action movies don't work." "Films about black people don't sell overseas." This is what many film-industry professionals, despite their varied personal preferences, long believed to be the hard truths informing what movies should get made. In 2005, speaker Franklin Leonard founded The Black List as a way to bring attention to Hollywood's favorite scripts when removed from the fog of this so-called wisdom. What happened next was amazing. Here, Franklin speaks about the limitations of Hollywood's evaluation of merit and what we lose as a society when we reduce representation in the kinds of stories being told. See blcklst.com/ for more. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
That was fantastic. Anyone who brings empathy for the underrepresented to the world is changing the world. You’ve done nothing less than shift the future.
There needs to be a musician/songwriting version of blcklst!!!!
Mahalia Jean-Pierre funny you say that..I have a nephew that is doing just that!
Mahalia I wholeheartedly agree
The script he describes at the top became 'Geostorm'.
He’s a very good storyteller.

@@101RealTalker how so?
do you read scripts?
@@TheGreatTimSheridan I'm intrigued by what could possibly qualify as a new "system"...I am a writer, so yes, I read scripts.
Franklin Leonard?? Who?? Isn’t he the guy playing the “I’ll make some noise “ gambit to get some “fame” rather than actually doing something ?? He complains about Hollywood nepotism hoping to create a wedge to get him some rather than busting a sweat!!
