If you could,who would you have to play you in a movie about your life, either it can be a made for tv movie,or a screen movie?What would it be called?Also you would be the director so you can have any famous people you wanted.

I can't think of any thing right now so Ill come back to it.

I would like Meryl Streep to play me. I think she could capture me well......

Plus maybe she would bring home an Oscar.

The picture would be called........... Life's not to be wasted...

Kay Scarpetta · 06-28-2004, 11:11 PM

Various people have told me my life would make a good book someday... hm.

I would have Angelina Jolie play me. We are very much alike. I'd love to have Allison Janney as my mother, and Mel Gibson as my father.

The director... hmm. Good question. I'd call it 'Never Looking Back'

The girl that was in "painful secrets" aka "secret cutting." i can relate to her character in that movie very well. i would probably call it "hell of yesterday".

Well, I'm still young, and though I can't think of actors who look quite a bit like me (though someone told me a while ago I look like a young Dick Van Dyke when I do this thing with my chin)- I'd probably have Kieran Culkin play me.

I'm not sure what it would be called though. If I had control in creating the film it would be a musical with the musical numbers taking place inside my head!

Christopher Walken

I would be played by... hmm. I think I'd like to be played by Bette Midler. I don't know why... it'd just be fun. Hah. It'd be called... well, I don't know, but Tarantino would direct. Cos you know, random people die bloody deaths regularly in my life.

Nah, he's just my favorite director. Him or Baz Luhrmann.

Ewan's My Man · 06-29-2004, 02:05 PM

I dunno, I guess Alexis Bledel, she could prolly play me pretty well, even though we don't really look like each other. For my mom I dunno, either Lauren Graham, haha, ok, so I know their on Gilmore Girls together, but my mom and I are like that, or Geena Davis, b/c people tell my mom all the time she looks like Geena Davis. My dad...hmmm, I dunno...and my sisters...*shrugs* young Mackenzie Rosman (back when she had curly hair) would be good for my youngest sister. My other sisters an actress, she could play herself, actually, my youngest sister wants to be an actress too...I dunno who I'd want to direct it, and as for a title I'd call it Laudie

, b/c that's my nickname and that's all I can come up with.

webuster · 06-29-2004, 02:23 PM

I'd have Alan Parker direct my life story

-*Forever*- Bette Midler rocks!

I don't have much to tell anyway for my life- so as far as my movie goes, I only have enough material for about 3 minutes (not including the opening titles!)

Mijada · 06-29-2004, 02:26 PM

I wouldn't want a movie to be made about my life. Probably no one would go see it anyway because my life is so boring.

So would mine- but then again, many life stories get put on screen and spiced up a little. What you do is exagerrate, take everything out of context, add in a 'slap' scene, a driving the car while crying and screaming scene and a comedic, fish out of water stripclub scene, and you've got yourself a tv-movie about your life!

That wouldn't need to be added. To prove how much I slap people -

Me - *on the phone with my friend Taylor* Are you coming to Greg's?
Taylor - I have to do some chores, but I'll come after that.
Me - Okay, good. If you don't come, I'll slap you.
Taylor - You'll slap me even if I do come!

Christian Slater - Our looks (and voices) are very simular

LucyCompanyPhan · 06-29-2004, 04:11 PM

the actress from American Pie (Michelle) & Buffy (Willow) Allison Hannigan or something like that is her name. She looks a lot like me. Although I've been told one of the young actresses on standing still would be able to play me.

Rhiannon · 06-29-2004, 08:46 PM

I would want to be played by Mary-Louise Parker with Stockard Channing as my mom
