The Plan!

We will stay on in LPL and USAir until March, unless the office will have been closed down before that date.

Meanwhile: 2 trips, I guess. Next week via DXB and the 7's to BKK for a week and suffer Christmas Callcentre Blues thereafter. In Jan, with Grace and Vale to Mexico, unless these plans get cancelled as usual.

Gives me a bit of time to study Japanese and prepare my new short plan! I'm about to make a "pilot" of my full movie, rewriting the story to be filmable from LPL only (i.e.w/o nn for tvl), warping about even worse than Almódovar between here there then and now. 1 problem... tvlwise: need an airport and busier than LPL, even MAN might not do... LHR best, but workaround exists... msging about conx into north.

First and bare backbone draft:

Actors needed: Son, Girl, Daddy, Mother, a flash of wife, Stunner.

Timeframe... 10' max... stories to be told: daddy meets mommy in pictures, boy meets girl in pub, daddy in midlife crisis (after the whole world turned against him) tries to re-live the past, girl tries to find father, boy trying to shake off family ties.

Scene 1: Beautiful young Girl waiting at busstation, bus to pull in at apt with Daddy getting off, and returning to origin with Girl. Will cross and nearly bump into one another, nobody knows nada. Stunner around.

Scene 2: Girl checks in at LPL hostel.

Scene 3: Daddy shows pictures from gap-year to Son via chat/FB/whatever, already far away.

Scene 4: Son having a lonely pint in dark alternative pub. Stunner around.

Scene 5: Daddy and wife big fight, harsh final words, slamming doors, suitcase out of the window.

Scene 6: Mother talks to Girl on FB/whatever, begging her to come back home untill shouting "Es el!"

Scene 7: Daddy gets made redundant in company closure: letter, newsflashes, newspaper, crisis, DOOOOM.

Scene 8: Dark alternative pub, Girl asks lonely Son why he is alone. Stunner around. We explain the whole story: parents seperated, still very fresh, dad fucked off. Girl says he should be happy to know his dad, she's looking for hers. DOOOOOM!!! A question, a smile, a drink, a blush, an email and a phone number. Mainly though just dark music, staring at a pint and sighs. Friday
