I heard back from a producer friend today who again seems to like the script, but unsurprisingly has some concerns about the budget. As it is, the story is about two men, and in the current draft you could argue that there’s no discernable protagonist. The common sense approach from a producer’s point of view would be to make it leaner and more manageable by focusing on the main character. This is what he would like to do if he did take the project on, but he’s also moving away soon, so it might not be practical for him to produce it.

I think that the slightly impractical or at least challenging nature of the script production-wise will prove to be a problem in getting it made, but as I said before, if I get it to a solid final draft I’ll be happy. Then, if someone wants to produce it, we’ll take it from there. I will have a chat with my producer friend in the next couple of weeks anyway and see what he says.
