There is a customer in my store who looks like a female Steve Buscemi with gigantic breast implants.

As far as the story, Henry Rollins had a similar scenario on one of his spoken word albums... they all ended up being Ramones fans and cooking stuff on hibachis.

I have an idea for a movie.

Picture this.

A heartwarming, coming-of-age tale where we witness the life of a person. Literally. Basically, the viewer follows this one person, from the time of his birth all the way to his death. We see key moments of his life. We see him make and lose friendships, suffer loss, lose his virginity to his one true love (the script would be written with Sarah Michelle Gellar or Scarlett Johanssen in mind, and I would play the lead), etc, etc.

Sounds typical right? Here's the catch.

The movie is shot only and entirely from the first-person perspective! So we see what a child sees as he exits the womb, we see him staring at a casket at his mothers funeral (as the rain pores down onto his face, of course), we see me, err, him looking down (or up) at Sarah or Scarlett, and we see as darkness as his last breath exits his mouth and his eyes close once and for all.

Whaddaya guys think?

Maybe some of the events that occur don't really make sense at first. Like you see kids laughing at him or something and it's ridiculously hard to find friends. Then at the end you can see him looking at himself in the mirror and he's some whacko or something. Obviously I told this badly but you can get a general picture of how it would work if pulled off properly.

I always think of ideas along these lines. When I was reading about patients in the book "The Man Who Misttook His Wife For A Hat" I was picturing pulling off some good movies by just going in first perspective. Also, you would see like the color "Green" and it would be "Blue" to him but he calls it "Green" (I know G-A has discussed things like this, like everyone has their own version of what is what, but you can't tell because it all links up for your particular vision to anothers)
 
Picture this.

It's a movie where Adam Sandler invents the worlds first time machine. But on its first test, the flux capacitator breaks down, and he gets thrown into 1940's Nazi Germany. Where he has all kinds of fun telling the locals about Hanukah
