Oh.. Right... Forgot to quote.... oops.


Actually, I was quoting for truth the comment immediately above mine, Cold's comment that Faye should be larger than life.



But since the comment was right there, I didn't quote because, you know, you don't do that, but since......


So, um, yeah. My bad.

Also, I'm not sure what the movie would be about.  The majority of movies needs some life-altering changes to keep people interested,

Correction: Hollywood insists that a/the main character(s) learn something from their experience.  I remember listening to an interview with someone who worked in the movie industry[1] talking about the difference between selling an idea to the American market and the British market.[2]

[1] I can't remember if it was a director, writer and/or producer.
[2] I'm not sure about this part of the interview but I think the reason why the American film industry insists on that is to show the films moral compass.  However, that part of the interview I'm less certain of so I might be wrong.

Carl-E:
Hollywood films needing a moral compass are the result of the Hays Code that began in the 1930's as an attempt to avoid government censorship. 

After two generations of governing film production, it left one hell of a mark...

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

Not least, in its explicit racism, accustoming America, and through Hollywood much of the world, to monochrome casting.  Because, you know, you need a moral compass to steer clear of multi-ethnic casting.  More like an immoral compass! :x
