lets say steven Spielberg or martin Scorsese wanted to remake a pakistani film. Let’s say they would make a normal film without the cheesy indian/pak musical clownfests. What would you recommend they remake?
Second question, lets forget about the remake. What kind of story about Pakistan would you ask them to make.
Re: lets say steven spielberg or martin scorcese....
would be a great movie to just be on independence
edhi lifestory
janahgir khan or cricket worldcup
the events that led to Pakistan becoming a nuclear power
some general fiction on a bassant competition..
Damn, those are actually solid. I especially like Edhi and Jahangir biographies. Maybe if they would be done in English, they'd have a superior audience around the world. But an uplifting Pakistani story could be told nonetheless. hmm
These were really good suggestions.
anyone else?
Re: lets say steven spielberg or martin scorcese....
The Battle of Lahore in 1965
The Assassination of Liaqat Ali Khan (I'm writing a screenplay on it)
Bio movie on Allama Sir Muhammad Iqbal
A movie on how Pakistan achieved independence and how Quaid-e-Azam fought for independence
Corruption in Pakistan and how everyone gets a piece of the share (Also writing a screenplay on it)
Re: lets say steven spielberg or martin scorcese....
Steven Spielberg could make "Back to the Future" taking a look at man's journey into pakistan 50 years forward given the political decisions now.
Martin Scorsese could make "Gangs of Lahore" or a psyco thriller on the lahore killer that guilty of the sexual abuse and murder of 1000 children
Re: lets say steven spielberg or martin scorcese…
gangs of lahore. how about gangs of liyari? that ones already written.
