Comment:
This class is extremely disappointing. You will not improve as a screenwriter in this class. Most of the content is useless. Marie lacks real writing talent, suffers from extreme narcissism, has a high level of entitlement, and oddly believes she is the fore-most authority on screenwriting, yet has never had a screenplay go into production.

Comment:
She cared and was accessible outside class in her office. Disorganized. Her story feedback was vague, and grading criteria were unclear. Focused on details like formatting and didn't teach much story structure, we were told to read a book to learn that. We watched a lot of movies in her class. I feel like I didn't learn much.

Marie was one of my favourite professors last year. She made every class exciting and fun. She is super knowledgeable and smart, and always has time for us. I looked forward to every one of her classes.

Comment:
She is a wonderful speaker. Speaks very clearly and knows what she is talking about. However depending on the TA you have it can be very difficult to get anything above a B. Sometimes seems like there is a lack of communication between her and the TA's, but might have been just for this course.

Very scattered. The class seems to be her lowest priority. More concerned with teaching students how to hide the truth from writers than how to story edit. Not open to new ideas.
