The Secret Of
Authoress J. N
"The secret to really effective
writing," author Josephina Nig
gli told Phillips Russell's writ
ing class here recently, "is re
writing until you have something
that really satisfies you."
Miss Niggli, a Carolina gradu
ate of 1937 and author of the
book, "Mexican Village," has just
returned from Hollywood , where
she was adapting the bok for the
movies. "I rewrote the opening
of the script 22 times and I know
of one writer who. rewrote his
opening 65 times." said Miss Nig
gli. ,
"The opening is the most im
portant part of a 'movie script,
or any. form book, play, or short
story," Miss Niggli" said. "In
Holly wool the people know that
if they fail to capture the audi
ence in the first five -minutes.: the
audience is lost. So the opening
is even more important than the1
climax and close."
An effective opening is partic
ularly hard to get working with
the movies because there is a cer
tain pattern that must be .follow
of the camera. "The audience

Effective Writing Is 'Rewriting,

ed and because of the limitations
must be placed in time and space,
otherwise it cannot concentrate
on the story. You must tell where
the movie is taking place and in
what year, or the rest of the mov
ies, but there are several special
conditions which must be met
in writing for the movies.
Miss Niggli emphasized that
the writer, "must think visually
not audially. This has been the
trouble with many fine writers
who have had difficulty writing
for the movies.
You must also keep in mind
the extreme limitations of the
camera. In a play characters
may tnter from all sides of the
stage, but in a movie, the range
is quite restricted and the ac
tion must " be concentrated 1 to be
effective."
"Backgr6und is also difficult
to work in and some of the best
movies devote practically no time
to this. Hollywood demands a
plot that is always. Moving for
ward, while in a book consider
able time is devoted to back
ground and past occurences.

2-0 edge over the. Tar Heels.
"Another factor that may dic
tate to the writer is writing a
part with a particular actor in.
mind. The lines must be written,
sc as to exploit the actor's tal
ents and jpiinimize any shortcom
ings. ,
"This is especially true in the
case of a musical where one or
more of the principal players are
primarily dancers or singers and
not actors. In this case the writ
er must direct the audience's at
tenion to those chaacters through
action or through other characters
without giving them difficult
speaking parts."
The movie version of Miss Nig
gli's book will be shot when the
spring cloud formations are suit
able. "We are waiting for .the
clouds, now," she said. "We must
have the correct background for
the movie."
