Blankments Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 The Salem Witch trials and McCarthyism are played out, using them to fill in part of a film is incredibly unstuble (especially since the most famous account of the Salem trials, The Crucible, is a direct metaphor for McCarthyism). Far better to just use the modern story. Well, I've actually been wanting to do a McCarthy biopic for a while, since I think Phoenix looks like the spitting image of him. I also don't know if the modern story would fit out to be long enough to support it's own film. I'll think about it though, since they are played out...

Ezen Baklattan Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 If The Academy's failure taught me anything, it's that interwoven anthology stories are not just hard to pull off, but they don't fit in well with just any story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what It thaught you? If this year's festival taught me something it was never to submit a movie when Numbers is in jury.

Blankments Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Not David Henrie? He would be a plus. Although honestly, my David Henrie love wouldn't be a good fit for Star Wars. The only role I wanted him to play in RL is Harry Osborn. He was born to play that role, and he'd do a much greater job than Dane DeHaan will. *mini-rant over* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
