New York University has revealed its 2024 picks for its Black List-inspired Purple List of the best production-ready screenplays from Tisch School of the Arts graduate film students and recent alumni.
The four screenplays, selected via a blind reading process by industry insiders, are Blue Comedy by Vincent Lee Accettola, Little Phnom Penh by Chheangkea, Rubber Hut by Hanna Gray Organschi and Satoshi by Sara Crow and David Rafailedes.
Blue Comedy follows a celebrity comedian who recently came out of the closet who returns to the Boston stand-up scene to mentor a straight comedian for whom he’s developed feelings. Little Phnom Penh explores a Cambodian woman’s personal desires and changing family roles over two decades in a story that spans across the U.S. and Cambodia after the fall of the Khmer Rouge regime. Rubber Hut centers around a former ex-Pam Am stewardess who opens a drive-thru condom shop...

On the day that this conversation took place, Sara Crow and David Rafailedes were on their way to a reception to accept one of the Sloan Development Fellowships—an artist grant supporting projects in development involving technology. However, as we spoke, it became apparent that while their upcoming project might delve into the tech world, particularly crypto, it’ll feature the unlikeliest of perspectives: that of a protagonist burdened by the weight of the world. Satoshi is unlike the usual set of films that fall into sector start-ups.
Sara Crow comes from a mostly docu world producing television work for others and a feature-length docu herself with Never Get Tired (2014).…...
