      That my idea and one sentence log line is rather unique, and that nothing like it is out there, but it would never get made as a trilogy or TV show. It's too out there perspective wise, breaks rules and would be too costly to take a risk on come film/season 2.

    Can he also leave contact details of the relevant producers because selling a script doesn't begin in a pitch meeting. It begins in the how to find the agents and producers.

    This guy is making your blood freeze. It feels like he's having this Aquarius vibe energy, very smart, weird and cold. I'd be frightened to pitch to him.
    I watched Pale Flower just to make an idea, and yea he's got a niche taste in movies and very original. I don't think he'd go for mainstream in selecting his projects and clients.
    The questions were great, you've got the info any new writer would need to know.

      I think his hesitation was due to confidentiality parameters he was trying to adhere to, when referring to his recent pitch and deal. I know when I get carried away talking about a client or a deal my tongue works way faster than my brain and later on my writing partner let’s me know about it!
