It's never too late...
Given my actual career in the telecommunications industry, it was perhaps not so natural for me to start writing screenplays with my husband. You could say my childhood came to the fore when my husband and I were on a acting and writing workshop one summer in 2018 with an award-winning film production company Cinemantrix. It just happened.
Who would I say was my biggest inspiration in film?
I would say Mr. Steven Spielberg, Mr. Francis Ford Coppola and of course the legendary Mr. Alfred Hitchcock. On the acting side it would be in no particular order Mr. Clint Eastwood, Meryl Streep, Leonardo Di Caprio, Ann Hathaway just to name a few, but there are many more,the list would be too long for this tiny space.
Why am I starting to write screenplays in my old age?
Age is just a number, not a barrier to having fun, and my husband and I have a lot of fun writing screenplays. Only our big and vivid imagination can stop our writing and constant new creation.
Of course we aim to get our work produced eventually, things may take some time, but hey, who's in a hurry!

My first real movie experience as a child?
Sometime in the early 70s, a black and white movie was on TV and I convinced my parents to let me watch my first real horror movie.
It was "Frankenstein" by James Whale. The character "Frankenstein" made me curious about who the person behind the role was and how he could act so evil and yet so caring. This got me interested in acting in theater, and later on I was also in a few movies, as an extra.
