Ugly Beautiful has been picked up to be produced by a Turkish film maker. It will be in Turkish with English subtitles.

Some scenes will have to go, and I quote the "vagina tasting" scene due to cultural insensitivities.

Take what you can get

Dude, you are an optioning monster - congrats

Well done - I liked this.

Cultural differences - curious things  

Thanks, hopefully it doesn't lose too much in translation.

I just read this and I liked it a lot! It was written very well, I didn't notice any spelling/formatting errors, so good job on that! I liked that you gave Page a little more depth to her look, instead of being just the typical "ugly girl", you made her heavy set and even gave her a stutter. I liked that. Also, loved the ending and how it contrasted to the beginning. It's like an "ah-ha!" moment, and I realized that Page was just imagining herself being beautiful so that was a pretty neat twist...

Now on to the 3 girls, as previously mentioned from others, I do agree that they were all pretty 1 dimensional and they all seemed the same. I, too, think you should have made one of the girls a little more sympathetic... Also, I wish you could somehow give more depth to what truly made her snap and kill those girls/her dog/etc. I mean, yeah she was bullied, but perhaps you could change her home life too? Maybe her Mom could actually be bullying her as well...? Would make her decent into madness more reasonable... Anyway good job! I really liked this.

And congrats on getting this filmed, btw! Just saw that after I posted my comments.

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for the read and generally positive feedback.

At this point I am done with Ugly Beautiful so I won't be changing it at all. As a whole I'm happy with the way it turned out.

And thanks again, hopefully they do a good job with the short film. Will be interesting to see it in a different language.

Hey congrats on this being picked up, man!
