:P

It wasn't written by a FORMER casting director, who's now a writer.  
It's written by a current casting director, in fact, the casting 
director of that film, who cast people who couldn't act at all, and who 
have never been in any other project.  His meager casting director 
credits outweigh his even more meager writing credits nearly 3 to 1.

I have no idea?
