I Had A Doozy Of A Dream

I had a doozy of a dream last night.

I dreamt of doing the remake of one of the greatest movies of all time;

The Marathon Man.

It Stars

Dustin Hoffman,

Laurence Olivier,

Roy Scheider,

William Devane,

and

Marthe Keller.

If you have never seen this film,

it is well worth

Renting,

Buying,

or

Streaming.

One of the most famous lines from the movie,

which was quoted by millions of people for years afterwards was;

Is it safe?

The remake of this film,

or I should say my remake of this film,

will be on

YouTube,

for your viewing pleasure.

Once I finish the

Script,

Production Sets,

Find Financial Backing,

A Producer,

Cameraman,

A Camera,

Stunt Double,

and

A Director.

Of course,

I will be playing all the different

Acting Parts,

since I am trained in the

Art Of Method Acting

from

The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute.

I just feel I am the only one qualified to perform such a daring role which

Dusty,

Mister Hoffman

for you who don't know him personally,

made famous in 1976.

What I have so far as my script.

"The camera will pan up from my feet, up to my head, showing me as a sweaty, overweight jogger, with wrist bands, a head band, and a number tag to my sweats, denoting my entry into a Marathon.

Other joggers, who will be played by me, will come up to Thomas "Babe" Levy, the part originally played by Dusty which is now played by me, and will punch him, trip him, and throw water in his face, with each one asking if it is safe! One scene will have Babe's Brother running up along side of him, looking like death scene Roy Scheider played. But instead of having his gut split open by a knife and spitting up blood, this brother will come running up with red completely surrounding his mouth, spitting out red juice, and when Babe asks his Brother what happened to him, he will say; These damn pomegranates are really messy while jogging!"

Here is an
Artist's Rendering
of what I will look like.

The script is still a work in progress.

So if you have any suggestions,

Keep Them To Yourself!

This is,

Is It Safe?

Is What Safe?

Is It Safe?

I Guess So.

They Say Pomegranates Are Supposed To Be Good For You!

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
