A recently Oscar nominated Patrick Marber, for a best adapted screenplay for Notes On A Scandal (novel by Zoe Heller) is interviewed by BBC News. Sign of new time or back to the basic, when he says, "Every studio has its own independent division, so people like me who would have once been abused as artsy-fartsy idiots are quite respected ... And there's a whole generation of stars who genuinely want to be in good projects".
