" Scene 2 : The Robbery"
Outside the store King and Bobo are sitting on the hood of a car. King is smoking a joint (big surprise) while Bobo is smoking a cigarette. Steve enters the store to buy mints and when he walks out, he does not signal, he walks down the street and King turns to Bobo."
King: I guess it's all clear
Bobo:You sure?
King: Yah, come on let's go.
Bobo and King enter the store and start a fake argument . . .
Most mornings I walk my daughter to preschool. We play little games like "i spy" or we look for local wonders in nature. It's good for us to notice changes on our daily route. Anyway, on the way back after getting my coffee, I came across something very interesting . . .
It was this page from a screenplay. Obviously written and dropped by one of the local college students. Completely novice in style and approach, it reminded me of one thing: there are creative people everywhere! It's easy for me to get all caught up in my own stuff and worry about the ins and outs of MYprocess. What a window into another persons creative world! I'm sure that this simple story of King and Bobo was rich with detail in the authors mind, sure it needs some character development but it is the beginning of something, a direction, something that might have potential. . . . and that is what it is all about - right? what a nice creative reminder for me and completely random on a monday morning at 9:07.
