Jimmy's breakdown leaves him unable to get past the end of his street. The only help he has is Everett Yates, the worst human he has ever met. Click on the link!
The pretentious theme for this film is free speech, and how we need to hear the worst to work out what to do for the best. With pratfalls and toilet jokes.
Inspirations include: As Good as it Gets (1997), Accidental Hero (1992), Rowley Birkin QC and, weirdly, Eric Morecombe in a flat cap and trench coat.
Or something like it!
Pros: A definite improvement over Dead and Breakfast in terms of characters and nailing the concept. Low key and gentle in a good way, rather than a lame way.
Cons: Low key and gentle can translate into boring. Heavily dependent on performances. Appeals to an older audience only.
Talks and discussions about individual projects - why they were written, what they are and what they can be.
Animated storyboards, audio clips and....any other kind of mini-presentation we can think of to dramatise scenes from the movie.
The link above will take you to a pdf (regularly updated) which details efforts to sell the screenplay and novel of Up and Down.
Although we want to make the movie ourselves - we have nothing right now, so a sale would be a huge boost to our/your income and profile.
