If you are a writer you should watch this!

I enjoyed this one very much, being a writer is never easy and this movie shows everything about the writing world. You will laugh and understand more about it. Being immersed in the writing book community for years I thought this movie contemplates different sides of creative writing, I strongly suggest watching it. The characters are interesting, the pacing is a bit slower than my usual liking but the direction for the movie was good.

I felt seen!

As a writer who has been struggling with the writer's block for a while now, this movie was highly relatable. I laughed, I cried and I fell in love with the beautifully chaotic world of writers.

Writers are complex human beings for the world but at the core of it all, we are simple human beings with minds that keep running at an unimaginable speed and hence get tired beyond a point at times, leading to writer's block.

Also need to add - this movie made me write again :)

So double bonus awaits for all the people planning to watch it.

All He Wanted Was to Make a Cat Movie

Howard Original is a satire of the Hollywood movie scene. Howard (Kevin Michaels) is a screen writer struggling to get his screenplay "Space Kitties" produced. Natalie Rodriguez and Kevin Sean Michals are able to make a racist, sexist man sympathetic to the audience.

If you have heard the various steryotypes in the movie business, Rodriguez and Michaels flip it while making the characatures recognizable.

The original songs in the movie are quirky and gave me a laugh. I especially liked the one in the beginning with the various pick up lines.

If you are looking for a surreal look into a desperate man's life, this is the movie for you.
