    Mafia, prostitutes, cults, fanaticism, fights, theft, etc. What else could you find while shooting a movie?

    Mafia, prostitutes, cults, fanaticism, fights, theft, etc. What else could you find while shooting a movie?

    This film is so damn enjoyable and one of the most entertaining films I have ever seen. It charms not only because of its story but also because of the way it is developed. It catches the viewer attention and makes him to keep on watching the next episode.

    It's an original story about the sudden disappearance of a script where nothing and no one it's what it seems. All told by the real crew of 'Notes from the New World'. To sum up it's a very interesting type of film that you shouldn't miss.

    Vitaly, the director of this film, has made a great job capturing the naturalness and spontaneity of the story.

    A mix of mystery, emotions, obstacles, shocking revelations and a lot more is the base of "The missing Screenwriter". A summary would never cover it all, just watch it!

    When you have a brilliant, original idea and don't turn it into something real, other people cannot enjoy the beauty of that idea and its potential positive consequences. But when you have a brilliant, original idea and turn it into a movie, and the movie exceeds the idea itself...Well, you get "The Missing Screenwriter". I loved the story, I loved the way it's been developed and I loved the surprising, dynamic structure of it. Unusual plot, unusual outcomes, unusual characters for a surprising, awesome movie that won't disappoint you, but will impress you and lead you to understand that complex is not always a synonym of difficult: this movie is complex because it has so much in it, but at the same time it is so easy to enjoy.

    Awesome!

    I had the opportunity to watch The Missing Screenwriter (private screening) , and I was really impressed. All the elements used helped to build an captivating story. The surprise was one of the elements that helped to make this story so interesting and fascinating. While watching, I had no idea what would happen next. It is exactly this fact that makes a production of a movie successful. After all, people want to see something new, different. Again, the surprise is an element that makes all the difference in this story. Besides it, I found it really fun. I also could observe the behavior of the characters. It is a well developed story, the mystery is also an important element of the story. It makes us reflect about our own imagination. After all, in our routine we see people speculating a lot, and we wonder where begins the truth and where it becomes only a mirror of our own fears. It is really worthy watching!
