<div title="Page 1"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:'Calibri'"></span><font><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><span>"Knobs and Handles"</span><span><i> </i>is a breakup story between roommates. Jon and Allen, both broke, hapless, and
hopelessly codependent, find their relationship deteriorating as economic and circumstantial pressures
build. Tensions rise, hearts are broken, and ants needlessly drown. Brendan Kelly and Kevin Naughton,
broke and hapless roommates, are currently in preproduction for this screenplay. Featuring Brian Bacon, Greg Mandryk and Nina McCollum. <br><span style="color:rgb(153,0,0)"><br></span></span></span></font></div><div><font><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><span><span style="color:rgb(153,0,0)"><b>ABOUT THE WRITERS:</b></span><br>
