Every time I read a script or watch a film I try and figure out what the real subject is. I call this the ‘about? For instance Babe is the story of a pig who wants to become a sheepdog and wins a sheepdog trial but the film is ‘about?pride and dignity and wanting respect from one’s peers. The ‘about?is very important because, in a good film, it is the subtext of every scene. In 2gether a man is sacked, picks himself up by the bootstraps and has seven days to put a boy band together. But for me 2gether (the movie) is all about dreams and god knows we all have those. Jerry wants to be a star, Mickey wants to be a singer, Chad wants to own a Sea-Doo, Doug wants to make a success of his life and QT wants to meet girls…
As it happens I discovered QT wanted to meet one particular girl. Her name? Britney Jean Spears. Well word has reached me that today QT’s dream came true. The guys did TRL today (it will be broadcast on Monday) and as luck would have it Britney was in the house. Another story with a happy ending…
Noah, Britney and Michael at TRL.
