The tragic, epic story of Nelson Rockefeller - colorful scion of
the wealthiest family in America, philanthropist and philanderer,
collector of art and women, equally reviled by the political left
and right, Vice-President and candidate for President, the scourge
of the Attica Prison riots and the savior of New York. From his
privileged but bleak upbringing to his firestorm life, from his
dynamic personality to his scandalous divorce, from his priceless
art collection to his sudden death in the arms of his mistress,
this is the story of an outsized figure - and one of America's
greatest characters - during one of the most turbulent eras in
American history. Hoyt Hilsman is an award-winning screenwriter,
journalist and playwright. He has written screenplays for Sony,

ST. FRANKENSTEIN, an original screenplay, is a contemporary return
to the classic Gothic morality tale, this time twisted with
taboo-smashing blasphemy, otherworldly lust, and blood-chilling
terror. In this blend of horror and psychodrama, Abbot Anton
Frankenstein seeks to redeem his infamous family name by converting
Castle Frankenstein into an abbey to further the original Dr.
Frankenstein's ghastly experiments, this time toward a divine end -
but again with unintended and even more terrifying results.
This is all three parts; of the screenplays; from the beginning; to
the end; as all three screenplays; are finally together.

Read the original shooting script for THE STINK OF FLESH and see
how a low-budget film translates from page to screen in the cult

entry in the zombie sub-genre. Great characters, talented
filmmaking, an inventive storyline... Definitely recommended and in
my humble opinion, a far better film than 28 Days Later."

classic DRIVE (1997) and several episodes of the CW Network TV
series KAMEN RIDER DRAGON KNIGHT, and author of the novels PETE,

Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw, named after a Greek
mythological character. It was first presented on stage to the
public in 1912. Professor of phonetics Henry Higgins makes a bet
that he can train a bedraggled Cockney flower girl, Eliza
Doolittle, to pass for a duchess at an ambassador's garden party by
teaching her to assume a veneer of gentility, the most important
element of which, he believes, is impeccable speech. The play is a
sharp lampoon of the rigid British class system of the day and a
commentary on women's independence.
