Writer's Block Dramas

Fiction and nonfiction writers have writer's block, which prevents them from writing.More movies and books about writers exist than I'd ever imagined. We seem to be our own favorite topics. Maybe that's from following the dictum "write what you know" or because some of us can't think of anything else to write on. I wondered about that in relation to having writer's block, the solution to which is often "just write". Some authors may have done so, and the following dramas resulted:

8 1/2
Adaptation
Barton Fink
Secret Window
Shakespeare in Love
The Shining
Swimming Pool
Throw Momma From the Train
Quills
Wonder Boys
Stranger Than Fiction
Finding Forrester


I found this list near the bottom of a page at Answers.com, and on it each entry links to another page of information there. If you can't write, you can always read or watch a movie about someone in a similar situation. Maybe it will give you an idea that leads to a solution for your particular case. Remember, each one is different.
