When in the late 1990's I wrote the screenplay, Zappp!, it was a catharsis exercise in creation. The story is a light comedy concerning the comeuppance of an unscrupulous, thievish movie mogul and an unethical, amoral motion picture studio. I had just been the victim of this kind of larceny myself - not once, but twice - and began to feel sorry for myself, so I availed myself of the wisdom of Aristotle, who advocated the easing of destructive emotions by bringing them to consciousness and affording them expression. Being a writer, the result was Zappp!
