Take 118 - Writer Tom Vaughan, Winchester, The Haunting of the Queen Mary

Screaming into the Hollywood Abyss

We talk to screenwriter Tom Vaughan who opens up about his Hollywood journey.
He talks about his early career, the arrogance and refusal to take notes even from Disney and the mistakes he made.
He talks candidly about being 'a drunk', how despite success he deservedly couldn't get people to work with him a second time and moving into teaching and taking a break from Hollywood saved him.
We talked about his Razzie nomination, how he reinvented himself and why he's not proud of any of the movies that he wrote.
An extraordinary insight into the mind of a writer who is happy to now share his experience and knowledge with those coming up in the industry.
