Tell me a story (movie script)

[Markitto]

I'm currently writing a script about foreign people in Japan. To summarize it very quickly it's about this Japanese person who will meet and be "invited" to this foreign communtiy.

There is a lot of prejudice about people who tries to fit in (many funny situations) but never can and people who don't want to fit in. Drama but with a lot of comedy flavor. The movie is going to be both in Japanese and other languages. It's also going to be half documentary/half fiction style. Real people, real stories but scripted.

Anyway, though I already have a lot planned, I'm still looking for more stories and especially situations.

For example: Have you been to a really strange job interview?
A funny missunderstanding? I bet everyone has something interesting or funny (or not that funny) things happening to them.

Hey dude,

A guy once came to me and asked me for a story for a moviescript. So I raped him. "There's your story" I told him. Ah, those days of innocent fun.

I already have a script you know.

Just wanted some more real situations to squeeze in outside the main story. Everything until now is from my point-of-view so I was hoping for some tips without ruin this thread.

Oh, and thank you

Where did you get the idea I'd be that easy? Wait a minute, did you say he was buying?

So basically you want us to help you write your script for free. . .

Actually, anyone with enough patience could trawl through the many threads of this board and find plenty of material for a variety of scripts.

So, we've already helped.

But I suspect that an alcoholic "interrogation" of Taro-san and the G-man would be worth anyone's while.

PS: After 3-4 drinks, you won't need the goat anymore.
