Make a Film!I've been trying to get some financing for a little film project I've written. A sort of art-house cult-film type thing - you know the sort of thing that turns up at midnight screenings.
It's called "Mutant Zombie Bloodbath".
Anyway, I was getting nowhere fast until a friend pointed out that the German Ministry of Culture is throwing money at every film-project imaginable - "Speed Racer" being one example. So I sent off the script.
It came back by return of post with a letter saying "Unfortunately this script does not contain enough German Culture for us to fund it."
So I renamed it "Nazi Mutant Zombie Bloodbath" and sent it back.
We start filming in a week with Tom Cruise in the lead role.
Edit: I use this regularly as part of my stand-up act in German - it gets enormous laughs, and I get 250 Euro for 10 minutes, so I think that satisfies the "get-rich-quick" idea.
