The Importance of Telling DARK Stories | Interview with Screenwriter and Poet, Joe Favalaro
Dark stories. The imperfection of being human. Hope and despair.
On today's show, screenwriter and poet Joe Favalaro joins me to discuss the importance of telling dark stories that get to the core of what it means to be human. We use one of his latest scripts, Ultra Modern, as an example of a dark story told from the truth Joe's experienced in his own life.
I hope you enjoy my conversation with Joe! Give him a follow on Twitter: @JoeStraynge
