I'm trying to sell my screenplay, "Bordertown." Log line: A private eye from a U.S.-Mexico border hamlet investigates a Mexican politician's murder.

My plan is to look for movies that are at all similar to my script and send query letters to the production companies that made them.The problem is my script is pretty unusual and doesn't have any close antecedents. I found the address of Robert Rodriguez' company on imdb Pro and sent him a query letter. My script is a little like "Once Upon a Time in Mexico," especially the part about the Amado Carillo-type drug trafficker who may or may not have died while having plastic surgery to disguise his appearance..

I have to get copies of the Hollywood Creative Directory (a list of production companies) and Hollywood Representation Directory (a list of agents).

Ever tried the Writer's Market? It's more geared towards literature (my niche) but there are listings for companies accepting screenplays. There's also Guide to Literary Agents. Both books are by the Writer's Market Press, here


There's also always Peters and Guber wink

Good Luck.
