Woman in the Dunes by Hiroshi Teshigahara (1964)




"I love staying at local homes,” the man says, accepting an offer of hospitality after he misses the last bus back to the city. He has been collecting insects in a remote desert region of Japan. The villagers lead him to a house at the bottom of a sandpit, and he climbs down a rope ladder to spend the night with the woman who lives there. She prepares his dinner, and fans him as he eats. During the night, he awakens to observe that she is outside, shoveling sand. In the morning, he sees her sleeping, her body naked and sparkling with sand. He goes outside to leave. "That's funny,” he says to himself. "The ladder is gone.”

Morning bird has gone
He was there alone

As the wailing of the ends
A burning tree inside me
On the branch of the crucified nostalgia

Seven key structure steps to understand Steven Spielberg


                       Christopher Vogler has revolutioned Hollywood especially directors like Steven Spielberg whom ScreenwritingU via Shanee Edwards writes resourceful article on how to write a screenplay . Of course , there are other US filmmakers that  have relied on the myth of the Writer's Journeyto write their movies  such as Georges Miller , ( Fury Road ) Francis ford Coppola ( The Godfather ) and Georges Lucas ( Star wars ) and more  .


Spielberg gets all Spielbergian on The BFG: 7 great story tricks we learned from the cinematic giant

Steven Spielberg’s first film project for Disney, The BFG, opens Friday and is based on the book with the same name by Roald Dahl. It’s about a little girl named Sophie (Ruby Barnhill) who befriends a giant (Mark Rylance) and discovers the wonders and perils of dream hunting.
Given that Spielberg is undoubtedly a master storyteller when it comes to action adventure films, we took a closer look at his techniques to see how they apply to screenwriting. Here are seven ways Spielberg gets all Spielbergian on storytelling.

No. 1 — Go to the dark side
In a typical Hollywood narrative arc, characters must be tested and the happy ending must be earned. The more hardship a character endures, the more we root for him or her to prevail – especially when that character is a child.
Spielberg’s secret to telling powerful stories about children lies in his ability to weave just the right amount of darkness into a story. InThe BFG, 10-year-old Sophie goes to live in Giant Country, where most of the giants eat children – a terribly frightening prospect that adds a big dose of danger to what could have been just a happy-go-lucky kids’ book.
“Being able to be scary and redemptive at the same time, and teach a lesson, an enduring lesson, to everyone—it was a wonderful thing for Dahl to have done, and it was one of the things that attracted me to want to direct this Dahl book…Without that dark center, where is the redemption, and how do you bring all of us out from the bowels of a nightmare into the most beautiful, enchanting dream we’d ever seen?” said Spielberg about Dahl’s book in the press notes provided by Disney.
Look for ways to balance darkness with redemption and evil with kindness and your script will have the story heft that Speilberg loves.

No. 2 — Dream all day
Many of us were told not to daydream when we were kids. As writers, daydreaming is our biggest asset and the key to writing a screenplay that will blow minds. “I don’t dream at night, I dream at day, I dream all day; I’m dreaming for living,” Spielberg has been quoted as saying.
We see this life motto translating into cinematic wonder. In the film, the Big Friendly Giant collects dreams and stores them in jars, emphasizing how important dreams are to humanity, or “human beans” as he calls them.
Even if you’re writing a crime drama or romcom, allow yourself to daydream about your characters. You might find new inspiration in how you shape their lives by letting your mind wander.

No. 3 — Take your time getting to the good stuff
Storytelling isn’t a race.
In fact, writing a screenplay is more about rewriting, since you’ll most likely spend a lot more time fixing your script once you’ve typed it into Final Draft.
Spielberg has also been quoted as saying, “All good ideas start out as bad ideas, that’s why it takes so long.” Don’t judge yourself, just keep working on your idea until it feels authentic to you. Then rewrite, rewrite, rewrite.
Disney's THE BFG is the imaginative story of a young girl named Sophie (Ruby Barnhill) and the Big Friendly Giant (Oscar (TM) winner Mark Rylance) who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country. Directed by Steven Spielberg, the film is based on the beloved book by Roald Dahl.

No. 4 — Don’t be boring
Of course, that’s easier said than done, but if you’re part of a writer’s group or like to get feedback from others, ask your readers if they were bored at any point while reading your script.
If so, go into that area of your story and spice it up. “The thing that I’m just scared to death of is that someday I’m going to wake up and bore somebody with a film,” Spielberg has also been quoted as saying. It’s a fear we all have, but there are ways to attack the problem. Get feedback and focus on the areas where you can improve.
No. 5 — You don’t need to attend a fancy film school
Legend has it Spielberg applied to USC’s film school, but couldn’t get in due to his poor grades. He attended Cal State Long Beach, but dropped out when he was offered a film contract. Making his first film as a 11-year-old to earn his Boy Scout photography badge, it was Spielberg’s passion and dedication that brought him success as a director, according to TIME Magazine.
If you have a passion for writing screenplays, it likely came from something in your own childhood. Think about what that might have been and how that manifests in your work as an adult.
No. 6 — Structure is king
Even with such incredible source material like Dahl’s book, screenwriter Melissa Mathison had to make additions and changes to make the story into a satisfying movie with a 3-act structure.
Spielberg also wanted to further develop the relationship between Sophie and The BFG. About story structure, Spielberg has been quoted as saying, “People have forgotten how to tell a story. Stories don’t have a middle or an end any more. They usually have a beginning that never stops beginning.”
Make sure the second and third acts of your screenplay are fully developed. Act one should ask a question that gets answered in act three. In The BFG, Sophie is an orphan and wonders if she’ll ever feel part of a family in act one. In act three, we see her living in a little cottage next to the giant, with whom she has developed a very close relationship, becoming his family.

No. 7 — Read everything you can (even books!)
In addition to watching movies, it’s important to read screenplays as well. But don’t forget about books. Yes, those things collecting dust on your shelves. Reading opens your mind, stokes your creativity and helps to understand points of view that are different than your own. As Spielberg said in his 1986 Oscar acceptance speech, “But only a generation of readers will spawn a generation of writers.”  It’s true.
The BFG opens Friday, July 1.
What have you learned from Spielberg over the years? What are you favorite story moments from the iconic director?

Reading can make you happy .






                 This is a Moroccan filmmaker who had this bright idea: launching a national campaign to culture and awareness. Encouraging more reading classics especially works of the world literature, enjoying some of the treasures of great music and discover master paintings.

                   Kamal Kamal unveiled plans there over a year.  allowing me some suggestions and ideas to enrich this unique concept. A year later, we are hard at work ready for this promising sharing.

                    In addition to the works on the program, we plan to produce 15 national premium television: the first 12 candidates will struggle in 2400 is 200 by region and issue. The last 3 will pit the best of them to the final after which will be awarded the 3 best candidates: the first will receive a cool $ 1 million dirhams, the second will receive 500,000 dirhams and the third 200,000 dirhams.

                   Other competitions are planned especially for children and prisoners. But more than the competition, motivating the rest, this campaign aims to open up opportunities for a company that is dangerously away from the culture of the arts. But we must remember that  culture remains the best bulwark against obscurantism whose consequences are catastrophic. Our country conducted a policy of Arabization which proved detrimental to have procreated illiterate bilingual, "bilingual" disoriented.

                   No theatrical education or film culture, by inciting reading or painting even less to the study of music. Many defects that facilitate the infiltration of extremist ideas an annual basis. Every year so we will offer the best literary works, Anthology pieces of classical music, pictures signed by the greatest painters and films of global directory hoping that our citizens will be achieved by this virus called artistic and literary curiosity. Not to be confused with "Tberguig" in which we are absolute masters for many decades.

  It's time to change. One philosophy says: "Culture is what remains when one has forgotten everything." We, did we forget to cultivate ourselves? I dare to believe, but it's true for the overwhelming majority. It's a shame and greatly damaging. So let many to participate in this campaign for the culture. This will necessarily something.

Omar Salim.
