I wouldn't make it exactly about the Will Smith thing, I'm not super into films about real event since they're almost always false and exploitative. I mean, he's still alive.

Maybe if they could pull it off like The Social Network, then sure. But I'd be much more interested in a movie BASED around this idea or inspired by such event. You can do a lot more with that without getting a lot of real life people involved with the event angry and it's probably less offensive.

Yes I agree. I did mean to base it around him, not on his story but as something that could be used as a framing device. I just can imagine his thoughts after he sits down and calms down, it must have been unbelievable

This is a great idea, based on this concept, it would be a fantastic film

The kind of camera work that makes you feel as though you're with the character living in the moment. The build up to the event, the psychological state of the character cracking until the event occurs, much like the film Mother

I still believe it happened to one of the biggest movie stars in the world, the whole event was surreal
