Movies as inspiration for writing. Prompt #289

movie-scriptMovies can be a wonderful inspiration for writing. I recently saw the movie, Sully. Even though I knew how it ended, I was teary-eyed. I was filled with emotion at how people helped one another. Director Clint Eastwood did an amazing job of telling the right amount of backstory and the right amount of Sully’s personal life. The focus was on the people involved . . . the human interest story.  There were lines of dialogue that were exquisite.

When using a movie as an inspiration for writing, you can write about the theme or mood of the story, a line of dialogue, a memorable scene, whatever interests you.

Write about:

A road trip. Thelma and Louise

How you learned to dance. Dirty Dancing

A time you were tricked, or you tricked someone. The Sting, two con men outcon a con.
