Screenwriter Larry Karaszewski
I Love That You Have to Crack Los Angeles
Larry Karaszewski and his writing partner, Scott Alexander, have written the screenplays for the movies Ed Wood, The People vs. Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon, and most recently, Big Eyes, a biopic of the painter Margaret Keane directed by Tim Burton. Before a screening and discussion of Big Eyes, Karaszewski talked about the movie he’s most likely to quote (Cooley High), getting out of the mopping-up-blood business and into the entertainment business, and why he’s kind of like Thousand Island salad dressing in the Zócalo green room.
