Hounds of Love..
In a David and Goliath battle, the screenplays for Ben Young.s debut feature Hounds of Love and Mel Gibson.s Hacksaw Ridge will compete for the original feature film prize at this year.s Awgie Awards.
That pits a low-budgeted film scripted by Young, which has grossed $125,000 in three weeks at six Australian cinemas, against the $US40 million WW2 drama written by Andrew Knight with Robert Schenkkan, which has amassed $US175.3 million worldwide.
There is only one nomination for the feature film adaptation category so the winner almost certainly will be Luke Davies for Lion, based on Saroo Brierley.s memoir.
The 50th Annual Awgie Awards presented by the Australian Writers. Guild will be handed out in Sydney on Friday August 25.
Individual category winners will be eligible for the Major Award, given to the most outstanding script of the year. Past winners have included the writers...

Put this on your To Do list — Lovelace, the Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman directed biopic about the star of Deep Throat opens next Friday August 9th in limited U.S. release as well as on Video on Demand and iTunes.
The film premiered at Sundance back in January to positive reviews (particularly for Amanda Seyfried’s performance) and this past week had its New York premiere. There has been a great deal of buzz surrounding this project, even as far back as 2011 when casting was being worked out. Kate Hudson was originally in talks to play Lovelace (with James Franco as her abusive husband, Chuck Traynor) but a pregnant Hudson dropped out and Seyfried came on board along with Peter Saarsgard (as Traynor) and Sharon Stone as Lovelace’s mother Dorothy.
