Does anyone want to hear about this insanely depressing...

Take your time, friend

Whenever, you are ready, op.

My film idea in short is about a mid 20s male who works in a factory as a CNC operator. He spends his free time trying to make underground synth/electronic music with all his spare cash, but his father who is very wealthy constantly shits on him, and tells him his music will amount to nothing and it's a waste of money.

The movie flashes to his childhood where his mom and dad beat him up while they have arguments, and it cuts to present time where the main character is trying to make it big on the side of his shit factory job and to impress his father.

Throughout the movie, the main character also spends his side cash on a herion addiction. At the end of the movie, the main characters music impresses a producer , and signs him to work with Richard d james who also loved his music. It ends with the main character celebrating with a lethal overdose, and his father finding his body in his apartment. It's a sombre ending because his music gets signed to a label before he dies.

where's the twist faggot?

the stuff he was shooting was uncut talent, and he overdosed in the form of this script treatment.

This is insanely good. I'm literally one of the Safdie bros and I admit this blew my mind. It's funny how nobody will believe this, but you would be supervised how much talent browses this place. This idea will haunt me for the next couple of days, I can already imagine filming it right now.

>capitalism bad! Art good! Profit obsession kills!
This is groundbreaking stuff user

That's literally not the meaning at all I don't think. I interpret it as someone who thought a simple talent would be a way of impressing the world. It's like negative 8-mile

ideas are worthless

It did impress the world in the end though, right? If the world had only given him neetbux like the beatles and british invasion generation got, he would be a successful artist.

Sounds more like a short film than a feature, unless you have more that shows the journey of how the main character ultimately lands the label.

What's the point of the father being wealthy? That how he manages to uphold his heroin supply?

Do you have a screenplay, or a at least a full outline of your story?

let me guess, it's inspired by a true story

nice

Op here, I honestly love reading all the opinions on my idea, keep em coming. Hopefully one day I can film this movie and start an indie film Revolution that proves small teams of people can make powerful and emotion films. Everyone i share this idea with tells me I should pursuit my dreams and get it done.

I'm no screenwriter but I think your idea is shit OP. To lend some credence to my claim, I'll try to think of something better on the spot here, although I didn't come to this thread intending to do this.

A womanizing doctor who thinks love is a myth meets a waitress who sweeps him off his feet. They have a tumultuous relationship as the two fight the fact that they're falling in love, but eventually after what seems like their final tearful breakup over his commitment issues she barges into his operating theater and professes that she's here to stay in his life, and that she isn't going anywhere. As the romantic music swells and the girlfriends who dragged their significant others to the theaters start to give sympathy handjobs out as payment for the ordeal of a hour-and-a-half the camera pans over to the audience watching the surgery from behind the one-way glass. What orginally was sillhouettes of doctos taking notes is revealed to be a false image, hiding people muching popcorn and being entertained for top dollar by two randoms' lives being subtley manipulated for their own interest and pleasure. Maybe we cut back and see how crew members were actively sabotaging the two's lives in order to make things work out how they did I don't know, but the actress who playes the waitress definitely shows full frontal and the hidden audience definitely saw her bush

Fuck me, I posted my grand dea and one of the Safdie bros supports it? Didn't someone say he browsed this place? Holy fuck, this gave me so much inspiration.

Weak fucking bait man. Try to learn how to fake sounding like a real person

That idea is eggnog. It tastes good to some extent , but you swish it around in your mouth the wrong way, and it's rancid.

I love eggnog, will you be the sprinkle of cinnamon I need user?
I mean will you have sex with me?

Why do you want to impress your dad if he beat you? Also, working in a factory is more interesting than shitty edm music.

10/10
