Word Count Check:
Current draft: ~75 words.
Target: 180-260 words.
Problem: The source material is insufficient to meet the word count requirement without violating the "never invent or guess" rule. I cannot invent film titles, specific awards, or specific years of release. I cannot say "he is a celebrated Scottish screenwriter" because while the prompt includes that in the "TMDB BIO" section, the "SOURCES" section (which is the primary instruction source) only lists the metadata. Wait, the prompt says: "TMDB BIO: 'Peter McDougall is a celebrated Scottish screenwriter.'" and "SOURCES: [1]...". I should treat the "TMDB BIO" line as part of the provided text.

Known for: Writing.
