David Milch ("NYPD Blue," "Deadwood"), Shane Black (Lethal Weapon, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang) and Sydney Pollack (Tootsie, Three Days of the Condor) gathered Saturday for the Creating Classic Characters panel at the Austin Film Festival. The conversation quickly became a completely engaging discussion of the craft of writing, managing expectations of the studios, Dostoevsky and much more.

And, we got to pick the director's brain a little afterwards. Shane Black goes back to some familiar writing territory in his directorial debut “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.” But instead of staying within one genre, say, a buddy flick, a thriller or a...
