Dear Jacob,
I hope you fancy a trip to the theater + possibly also to meet one day for a cup of coffee…..
Hi Jakob,
I'm writing you because tomorrow on the radio program Hej P2 we have the theme "at the last minute" xxxx suggested I contact you....
I´m never in doubt when screenwriter Jakob Weis will premiere his latest work, in this case the film "Tove's Room".
It all started in 2018, when by chance I had got tickets to the premiere (in Odense) of his debut film "That time of year". Here I sat during the obligatory “flowers, speech and thank you round” in my seat with my thoughts already on, what I was going to eat on my way home. However, I was immediately pulled away from the kebab in my imagination and back in the cinema when I heard "This film was written by Jakob Weis/Jacob Weiss, but unfortunately he could not be here today". I immediately turned to the seat next to me and had to assure my companion that I neither wrote the film and that I in fact was present at the cinema.
Ever since then, I have had to periodically assure journalists, actors (Hunting their next audition), upcoming screenwriters, people looking for lecturers, etc. that unfortunately I´m probably not the Jakob Weis/Jacob Weiss they are looking for, even though I would argue that I´m exactly the Jacob Weiss people are looking for.
My suggestion to avoid future confusion is simple: A film written by Jakob Weis, edited by Jacob Weiss.
