#Scriptchat OPEN TOPIC
Since the EURO group was winding down at a party after the London Screenwriters’ Festival, the crowd was small, but still always fun. USA was in the same boat because of Halloween. However, Open Topic always brings out some interesting … and varying… points of view. Enjoy! @jeannevb
