Quoted from mgj
Anything by Bread would make good material for a movie.  


I perfectly agree with you mgj.

Some country music songs could be perfect too to build a movie around. I particulary think about "I Hate Everything" by George Strait or "I don't even know your name" by Alan Jackson.

Maybe, as a Frenchman, am I too weird to like this kind of music?

I've always thought the Beautiful South song "Woman in the Wall" would make a good short story.

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=SyO_hTq_pX4 (sorry about the sound but it is the only version I can find)


Quoted Text
He was just a social drinker but social every night
He enjoyed a pint or two or three or four
She was just a silent thinker, silent every night
He'd enjoy the thought of killing her before

Well he was very rarely drunk but very rarely sober
And he didn't think the problem was his drink
But he only knew his problem when he knocked her over
And when the rotting flesh began to stink

Cry freedom for the woman in the wall
Cry freedom for she has no voice at all
I hear her cry all day, all night
I hear her voice from deep within the wall
Made a cross from knitting needles
Made a grave from hoover bags
Especially for the woman in the wall

She'd knitted him a jumper with dominoes on
So he wore it everyday in every week
Pretended to himself that she hadn't really gone
Pretended that he thought he heard her speak

Then at last it seemed that he was really winning
He felt that he had some sort of grip
But all of his new life was sent a-spinning
When the rotting wall began to drip
