Fighting Belle has been released! And you can rent or buy it on Amazon Streaming!*

When a sassy Southern belle is stood up at the altar by her boxer fiancé, she dons the gloves hoping to salvage her pride by hooking up with her ex one last time – in the ring. 108 pages

Almost ten years ago Aimee Parrott & Antonio Gangemi submitted Fight Belle to the Unproduced Scripts page. About five years ago, Aimee told me that it has been discovered on SimplyScripts and was in pre-production with Integral Pictures. Last night I reached out to Aimee to get her contact information updated and she informed me that Fighting Belle would premiere on Saturday, March 18th 2017! I think this is the first feature to get picked up from the site.

Please check out the Fighting Belle Facebook page and get more information about the movie on the Fighting Belle IMDB page.

For you old-timers, you can check out the old thread on https://web.archive.org/web/20071113092838/http://simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-comedy/m-1180309818/

Sean has graciously allowed me to upload the draft of the script as it was when it was discovered: Fight Belle (108 pages in pdf format) Filmed as Fighting Belle

That's an awesome logline. The script link doesn't seem to work... is it supposed to be taking me to this thing called the "internet archive way back machine"?

James, it is not a link to the script.  It is a  link to the old thread where the script was discussed.  I thought Bert would get a kick out of it.

Yeah, thanks, the link works now. And the link to the actual script works too so I'm reading it right now.

Don't know what they're up to these days, but they were really good writers.

! Let's not let that get around... Please.  ;)

Tony is no longer with us, however Aimee is still writing and working on multiple projects.

Shit.

I had no idea...that's upsetting.

I deleted the link that has the link to the script  I don't want to jeopardize anything.  Once the premier is over, I'll ask Aimee if she can ask the filmmakers if we can post it.

Whoops. Me and my big mouth...

Sean,

Thanks!  This is one of the first features to come out of the SimplyScripts camp, so we are all very excited and wishing you the best with it.

Fighting Belle is out on Amazon Streaming:

I think some may find the evolution of the script from page to screen fairly interesting for this project once they've read the script and then seen the movie.
