More on a friday?

Hi kiddos. I'm back, I was just listening to some Patrick Wolf as I wrote some more of my screenplay for school... Which I'll do a quick write-up on since none of you know WHAT it's about! Ha ha! Mmmk, well I was listening to Mr. Patrick Wolf, which got me thinking of why I like Patrick Wolf, and the reason behind that is my VERY talented friend Beric Manywounds (who directed the above video in our film program). The kid is a genius in my eyes and I love him to death... He's recently gotten engaged to his boyfriend and there's few-to-no people I could be happier for... He's a wonderful and really taught me a lot about who I am in many ways (as a gay male, as a native, as a human being, as...) he's got a beautiful mind and UGH! I dream of one day watching his music videos all day long!

So, my movie... It's about a gay boy named Mark. Err... I'll just give a brief description of the plot actually, probably easier.

It's called "...a good time..." So, Mark and his best friend Sarah are in their grade 12 year of high school and spend their time wandering around their small town criticising everything around them. The movie opens with Mark and Sarah wandering around Liquidation World looking at crap, Sarah talks about how she's going to get a big bed when they move in together next year. Mark says he's only moving if he get's a scholarship. Mark has to go to the bathroom. In the bathroom Mark finds a number on the bathroom wall and runs to tell Sarah about it. They call the number and Steven (30 years old) answers. Mark flirts a bit, but Steven seems interested in going on a date and not a quick hookup and hangs up. Mark and Sarah lookup his info online using his number and watch him water his garden. That night they destroy his garden. The next day they drive past and see Steven is visibly upset as he talks to a neighbor. Mark feels bad, but Sarah just laughs. Mark calls Steven and has an actual conversation with him before setting up a date with him. Steven is a gay writer and activist, it turns out. Near the end of their date Mark and Steven bump into Sarah who awkwardly excuses herself away...

And yeah, the plot goes on, but I won't bore you with more of it... that's the setup of how it goes.

That's all for now kiddos... I'll leave you with another video from Beric Manywounds that he made for second year... GENIUS! I wish I had seen the final product but he didn't release it because he was upset with the turnout :( I'm such a fanboy of his UGH! I love him!
