and murderers and rapists and they
virtually disinherited him. So there-
fore he does not pass judgment on
what Mike wants to do. I like that,
and the fact that he's very true to
himself — and to Mike — makes
him unusual."
"That [Petrovsky] became a crimi-
nal defense attorney was, in his fami-
ly's eyes, a total betrayal of what he
should have been doing," explained
co-screenwriter David Levien, "but
there's a lot of sacrifice involved in
finding whatever it is that you're called
to do."
"Whether Mike's listening at that
point, or doesn't get it until the end of
the movie," added his screenwriting
partner, Brian Koppelman, "that's for
you, as a viewer, to decide. But that's
the professor's way of saying, 'Follow
your calling.'"
The advice Professor Petrovsky
offers stems in part from the screen-
writers' backgrounds (both grew up as
Reform Jews, Levien in Colorado and
Koppelman in New York) but also
from the belief that it was the time for
them to leap through their own win-
dow of opportunity.
Rounders, directed by John Dahl, is
the first screenplay from the team of
Levien, 30, and Koppelman, 32, who
have been best friends since meeting

in their teens on a youth group tour
of Western national parks.
"We're like brothers, really,"
explained Levien, "each other's closest
friends, best men at weddings, the
whole thing."
That closeness, apparent in the way
the pair often finish each other's sen-
tences, turned out to be a good foun-
dation for a creative collaboration.
Each had worked in the entertainment
industry shepherding other people's
work, and felt the time was right to
work exclusively on their own material.
After graduating from the Universi-
ty of Michigan, where his fiction
appeared in the literary journal,
Levien moved to Los Angeles, where
he worked for various agencies and
production companies as a story edi-
tor.
"At the same time, I was pursuing
my own writing," Levien said, "and it
became more difficult to come home
after working on other people's mater-
ial all day and bring anything to
mine."
So he quit and did the "cliched"
bohemian writer thing and moved to
Paris. From there, he got an opportu-
nity to head to Argentina and train
horses. The job turned out to be "a
much tougher experience than the
movie business."
Levien headed to
New York City
next, where Kop-
pelman, a Tufts
alumnus, had.been
working as a record
executive for vari-
ous labels. "I had a
lot of success in the
record business,
and I love music,
but I hated being
an executive and
being able to hold
sway over artists'
careers," said Kop-
pelman, who execu-
tive-produced Tracy
Chapman's first
album.
Koppelman even
went to Fordham
Law School at
night while work-
ing days as "part of
a search for what I
wanted to do." He
got his law degree,
but never took the
bar, and, like
Levien, spent his
