Group Script Extract:
DIRECTOR: Hi, how are you? (Hi 5 – hands)Â
PRODUCER: Hey, man I’m good, what happened with that thing?
DIRECTOR: Oh, the thing! You mean that thing! Oh, nothing really … coffee?Â
PRODUCER: Please, and make it strong I was at a premier last night with Jack .. pheww!
DIRECTOR: Rather you than me!!! Hahah!! (Pouring a coffee) Now I’ve been looking at this script. It looks good .. real good. Full of action, I have just the people in mind for the parts of those crazy cat burglars.Â
PRODUCER: You do know we have Arnie and Bruce for the title roles.
DIRECTOR: I know, I know. The title roles are going to Bruce and Arnie, no problem. Don’t worry.Â
PRODUCER: Have you read this script? ‘The Psycho Cat Burglar Two’. We’ll make millions on this one just like we made on ‘Psycho Cat Burglar One’Â
(DIRECTOR and PRODUCER browse through scripts getting up and walking to front of stage, as CAT BURGLAR 1 & 2, wearing ski masks, enter quietly through an open window. The CAT BURGLARS, carry small black duffel bags and what looks like a magnum each. CAT BURGLARS sneak slowly up behind DIRECTOR and PRODUCER who are paging through the scripts. As one CAT BURGLAR 1 silently climbs over desk, the other circles round)Â
DIRECTOR: It’s going to be another box office smash. We’ll film the interiors in Hollywood, then to San Francisco and New York for the location shots.Â
CAT BURGLAR 1: (Sticks gun in DIRECTOR’s back) Stick em up!
CAT BURGLAR 2: (Sticks gun in PRODUCER’s back) Yeah .. Stick em up!
