The more I hear about the film, the less enticing it sounds. I'd love to see Jesse and Mel play a pair of neurotic Jewish siblings in something by Woody Allen. I figure as long I don't snot all over myself I'll be good. I'll throw in a, "This is my first screenplay and I wrote it for you!" in for good measure.
Absolutely! Dan's probably well acquainted with babysitting Elsa while August and Julia go out. I bet he teaches her swear words in French and Catalan and then gives her a lot of sugar.
I can see it, but more so in Dan's performance rather than the IB screenplay. He made Fred even more of an innocent, which is probably what Quentin wanted for the part. Fred knows a good woman when he sees her, especially when she's up a ladder outside of the theater she runs. My friend told me after seeing Goodbye Lenin! that Mel should've been in it. Because all of Dan's films could use her.
I love my job, and indeed, it's really worth it in the end. I read, back when I was beginning Rain Dogs, that one should expect to spend up to two years writing a screenplay. I almost didn't want to believe that, but I now see how right that estimation is. Ha! I do get told that I look like an art school student from 1990, though. But I unironically enjoy a lot of things that would count against me being a hipster. Tom Waits is the only person alive who can be sitting next to David Bowie and not give a fuck.
I am so good at procrastinating, too. I seem to have to function with a degree of pressure on myself. It backfires sometimes, leading to a total burnout. However, I have a drive to write this thing that I've not felt before (or at least in a very long while), which is reinvigorating. Sometimes it's nice to slow down a bit, too.
Now if only those two can combine those genetics. I would gladly wait eighteen years for that child to grow up and break into acting (I imagine Mel and Dan would have to keep a close eye on such a child).
