Movie Review: The Last Seven

STAR STAR

The Pitch Review
[all in British accents]
DIRECTOR: GOOOOOOOAAALLLL! Pay up, Writer!
WRITER: Absolutely not. You owe me a pound. Don't you ever worry about these massive crowds? "Mob mentality" and all? People can be dangerous - especially if football is their religion - and lots of people more-so.
DIRECTOR: I think the complete absence of people would be more frightening. Goodness me, that would make a fantastic movie. End of the world stuff.
PRODUCER: Indeed it would. And to top it all, we won't have to pay any extras.
DIRECTOR: None?
PRODUCER: Not a single one. Well, maybe a couple, sparingly. And we'll cast those theater actors from that local theater you love, and -
DIRECTOR:  Film it like that movie you worship...[snapping with one hand repeatedly]
WRITER: Memento?
DIRECTOR: [Punching Writer on the shoulder] That's the one. I can see it now, and imagine the sound will be reminiscent of nails on a chalkboard - sustained.
PRODUCER: So it'll all be filmed between 4 and 5am, before anyone is up. Clearing the streets will be a nightmare.
DIRECTOR: Not as big a nightmare as -
PRODUCER: GOOOOOOOAAAALLLLLL! [Gripping Director's thigh].
DIRECTOR: [Slapping Producer's hand off thigh] Shut up, Producer.
