    This is one of the types of mentors a writer should know. No ego to crush your mind, feelings or abilities. I love how he lets Karen express herself free from judgment. The respect on both sides should be a masterclass. I truly believe we are our best selves when respect and trust are given.
    I wish the Film Courage team and everyone else a Happy Holidays. 💯❤🎁🎄🎅🙏🏽

    I'm a scientist and have no interest in film, acting, or anything related to these fields beyond just enjoying the productions that others have made. Nevertheless, this is such an incredible interview that I couldn't stop watching. Jack's insights ring true across fields, generations, and cultures. Indeed, this is not just an interview about method writing but about life. No matter what you are doing or what you are into, everything he said about finding success sounds familiar. I'm not at his age yet, but hearing these anecdotes and the emotions that come with them has given me pause to reflect and jot down some mental memos on how to adjust my own path. Life is short and all will disintegrate, but we can choose how to converge to that destination with some grace. Thanks for the interview.

It wouldn't have been such a great interview without Karen's openness; This couldn't have been an easy interview, thanks for being so bold and versatile with the willingness to subject yourself. My heart was in my throat for both personal stories. Stoked I have more to listen to. Thanks to everyone at Film Courage.

Thank you Jack Grapes, for trivializing the greatest enemy - the writing block. So many things just fell into place, and everything seemed to be much less dramatic, and very chill. It's one of those moments a man can honestly say to himself... He actually changed my life, with only a few sentences.

    At 2.00.39 he really got to me. Before that I knew what he wanted to hear from her..I almost shouted to the screen: How did I do that? And can I do it again! My own in between added version would also be.. That wasnt me who created this! Maybe God, maybe something mysterious, but is surely wasnt me…But at the time I gave in the beginning, I paused. I felt very emotional, walked to my laptop and started writing something from deep within me. My superficial surface was gone..I was at that point that he wanted her to be. If you are capable of doing such a beautiful thing, you are a master ❤ And I felt what you meant. Now I am ready to unpause the video again, and watch until the end. Thank you!

    3:16:00 _"But if you read [Proust] fast, you realize he's talking."_ -- This: the sound and the music, meter and elision has its own movement and choreography; composition is a physical performance and act, something strayed from since texts stopped being read aloud. The "deep voice" needn't be ponderous or plodding -- it should be a lightning strike and flash flood if called to. How Grapes negotiated that personal subject with the interviewer earlier - tactful, not intrusive - that _via negativa_ pairing away of excess and obstructions to arrive at the unvarnished fact of the matter was a great demonstration.

    This is how you should write by default. Storytelling comes from cavemen recounting and embellishing their hunting adventures, entertaining and inspiring the others in the village, all sitting around the evening fire. I always write as if I'm sitting at the campfire, enthralling the eager faces looking back at me, enriching their night with a new dimension of mystery and intrigue.

    Talk about a genius.
    A humble genius at that.
    My dad's name was also Jack.
    He is the reason I write & Create today.
    He was one of the very, very few people I have ever known who was truly who himself.
    He literally just did not care what other people thought.
    He said what he wanted to say, how he wanted to say it.
    He dressed how he wanted to dress and he did what he wanted to do.
    He was an eccentric, amazing, brilliant man, and I am grateful that even though he is in another form now, he continues to inspire my creativity -
    much like this channel
    Also the interviewer is one of my favorites interviewers EVER.

But in fact I really like to outline, to have at least the broad beats written out - and probably even a twenty-page treatment! I do free-writing, but I never follow it to full script. Will have to try it - I have had outrageous good fortune with Blind Dates. By the way, nice job singing 'You Can't Hurry Love' ... I didn't hear Phil Collins, I heard DIANA ROSS!

    Thank you soo much ...
    He said about his dad and not really knowing how to work this adult life and how every day you have to figure the next day out was confirmation that I'm not alone and trying to figure this adult life out. Thank you. I need to hear that from somebody who from the outside looking in, looks like they have it all together, and to realize they still have to make decisions Daily, and they still feel unsure... thank you ... i needed to hear this

    "I'll never know how to survive...because I wanna be an artist...and, I don't know how you make a living as an artist...?!"
    "60 years since my dad died. I'm still not sure I know what the secret of life is... I'm still not sure I know how to survive. I can't believe I've survived this long; but, I have. I don't believe it. I don't get it. I don't know how people survive. I always think they know something I don't know...?"
    GREAT interview...wow...true feelings being exposed...no BS-ing around. I love hearing this kind of open talk. I guess, because it's something I myself tend to identify with...and, 'think' one hell of a lot.

    Thank you for sharing the valuable informations! I have neen fearful since the beginning but because of one artist who believed in me before I beleved in myself helps me overcome my fear. I m even more and more fearless to fail as I move on with my story. I believe in miracles. Being who I am today, am able to write, produce, direct, edit, shorts and feature because of zero budget I could still do it for fun with 1 creative partner who never gives up helping me pursue my dream. I want to stay focused on learning more and more to be a great filmmaker by following my heart and watching the masters like you.

    Wow!
    The first time I sat down to write my first novel, I had NO idea of what I was going to write about. I just sat down to my "typewriter" and started writing.
    The story wrote me.
    So glad to hear someone say that about the difference between writing a good story vs a great story.

    At 1:49 - Reminds me of Flowers for Algernon. I never write a first draft that is perfect, I'm to good for that. In the short story, after he started to lose his intelligent, he could not longer correct his work, he knew he was on the downhill side.

    The name 'film courage' could have been created just to describe this approach: the courage to launch out into the unknown without a map, and to fail. I think, as I say in my other post here, there are things writers can learn about mapping out and structuring a story, but I think for most, this brave writing blind approach is the first thing to learn.
