Oh, my poor screenplay. You are like a Murakami novel meets The Sting meets a Greek tragedy starring James Spader. And all of this in eight pages.

Please say it has a jazz trombonist. It's not like a Murakami novel unless it has a jazz trombonist. Or extended conversation on wells.

It has neither, but it does have a professor specializing in the Byzantine Empire who was once the world's best Risk player and whose wife is dead.

How can someone be the best Risk player? Roll lots of sixes? Seems more like luck than anything else.

What about cats?

There's strategy! Mostly luck, though.

Alas, he has a dog. I'd change it to a cat, but I'm kind of attached to it (not that it'll appear in the actual film). It's a Scottish Terrier named Justice.

However, I haven't yet written the dialogue, so there'll probably be a conversation about women's earlobes/Beethoven/Truffaut/wells/jazz.
