HARLAN COBEN

I overheard a conversation yesterday about Harlan Coben.  Mmmmm, I have to look at his novels.  Might be a project there.  Always on the lookout for material to develop. 

Guillaume Canet did a good job adapting Coben’s TELL NO ONE a couple years back.  I liked the plot twists.  I love scripts with a lot of reversals.  It’s easier to get actors excited and attached if the story keeps turning.

If you keep your audience guessing, you have an engaged audience.  If your audience is way ahead of your plot, your audience is bored.
