that's quite sad really, if all that sums up american cinema as we know it.

I need the majority of the script before I work on the love scenes....is Scarlett going to be a femme-fatale type? Or a good girl? Is Ru a tortured soul? Or a kind and caring cop? I need to know so I can write the appropriate love scenes.

I like the tortured soul type, kind and caring = boring.

too true...I like William Petersens character in "To Live and Die in L.A."...I think I shall model Ru after him. Tough outer wall, sort of a loner but is highly capable of making a woman feel like she is the only woman alive in his eyes.

ah no. my synopsis does not depict him like this. i have him as the refined, renaissance man, secretive yet socially successful, who has a holy grail of his own to fetch. wait, girl, working on it. watch your pm's too.

well secretive can be perceived as "loner", and someone with their own "holy grail" to fetch can oftentimes innocently ignore things and people in favor of their quest, thus making them appear to have a tough outer shell.

well, yes...
these characters were imagined a long time ago for this story i could neve completed, ive been trying to dig up memories and computer files and translate - which has been fun, btw - and the way i remember that guy, he had this totally brilliant and seductive outer crust, and he was perceived by some as ambitious and a bit heartless, while inside he was close to being a wreck and had very precise reasons for doing what he did, which very few people were aware of.
i remember the girl characters were a lot of fun, and the other detective was more of the brainy / brooding type with a latent sociopath side to him.
anyway i have been writing a point by point description of each main character recently. you want them?

oh this thread is awfully quiet, so since the production team is either idle or working hard on the project, depneding on whom is concerned - oi am the producer, so idle for now - i just thought of a re-cast, or in this case a remaike - how about rufus playing the dysfunctional poet in "a fine madness"?
i know that sean connery was excellent in it, but i would so wnat to see rufus scream "my poem!!!!" while running after reams of paper sheets in the wind like connery did. that was a very funny movie. who would play johanne woodward's role? i would kind of see someone in the style of bernadette peters.

that reminds me of the scene in Love Actually when Jamie (Colin Firth) loses his manuscript to the wind and has to jump in the lake to get it.

oh that was so good.
in the sean conery movie, it was so funny, because you see this big action hero (because you keep seeing james bond, the mvie was made in 1966), just going crazy because he loses this poem he has been unable to finish because to many women are after him, and he is just losing it, roaring "my poem, my poem" at the top of his lungs - this is so priceless.
