The Mind of a Madman

Dariel is shot and thrown out

The best thing about the conclusion for Planning In the City is that the president relates to several of our, or any other country's presidents. And the rookie cop, Dieter, relates to several cops in this country, or, any other country.

The reason why Dieter's good friend Dariel, kills him is because Dariel also relates to several people who will sell out their friend for lots of money; or in this case, kill his friend just to do the president a favor. How much do favors cost now-a-days?

While Dieter is chased by the hookers, cops, internal affairs, Dariel, and the president, he runs and runs like a cattle about to be slaughtered. He runs but the potion that has protected him this long soon begins to run out.

Dariel is shot and thrown out of the helicopter after completing a hit on his good friend, Dieter.



SOYMILK

I'm taking a break from editing my recent screenplay. It's amusing to experience the distractions of a large project such as a screenplay: Screwdrivers, dinner, walks to the beach, and now soymilk and granola cereal.

After the heart slows down and it's ready to write, while Dylan plays in the background, then and only then is the whole experience of what screenwriter's long for, and are obssessed about: Minutes away from another cereal plate of granola and soymilk, I hope to edit over 20 pages. It's just that the real world of responisbilities sometimes drains the soul's rhapsody for art. 

The screenplay is titled, "Planning In The City." It offers a youthful look into what is plausible in a city where one must be two-faced or they'll get trampled on. 

The conclusion, whis is complete, but yet to be edited, gives the audience an analysis of a city where one cop and one president make deals while drooling with the upper hand. 

   



MELBOURNE INDEPENDENT FILM MAKERS FESTIVAL

This friday and saturday is going to be the Melbourne Independent Film Makers Festival. I don't have to work so I'm going to drop by both days and check out the talent. I' m also planning to carry with me several copies of the synopsis for two of my complete screenplays. I'm not on a mission to get noticed, but you never know where fate might strike. I was also thinking about taking several copies of the two scripts, just in case some big shot with connections says, "Let me have it."

Has any unknown screenwriter ever had any luck at a film festival. It can't hurt to take my synopsis and scripts. From what I've read there is going to be several guys who have plenty of experience in the industry. Maybe I'll tackle them to the floor and slip them the synopsis with my contact info. What soda pop should I spill on them to get noticed. Should I tuck in my shirt or be myself and where my black t-shirt with the Statue of LIberty with bombs and oil refineries next to it.

If any one out there has ever scored with connections at a film festival go ahead and share your story. Maybe I should show up pulling a donkey just to celebrate the democrats recent victory. Are you telling me I won't get noticed. Of course I will.

I got it, during the question and answer show I'm going to make paper airplanes out of my synopsis and launch them at the guys sitting at the round table. I'll yell, "JIM MORRISON!" If I don't post another blog on this site it will be because I was registered into Circles Of Care, a mental institute. It's just that when a screenwriter wants it so bad, he or she will go to great lengths.
