Joel Surnow Has 24 Ways to Say 'I Love You'
From Canada.com (your source for the latest on flannel, sketch comedy, rampaging moose, and other topics of interest to our neighbors to the North) comes news of yet another small-screen titan making the leap to celluloid–Joel Surnow, creator of Fox's 24, is producing a romantic comedy:
That Face
centres on a small-town guy who lands a job at a New York cosmetics
firm, only to be fired on his first day after telling the owners his
honest opinion about their spokesmodel. He gets a chance at redemption
after finding a replacement, but the foul-mouthed beauty needs a lot
more than makeup to become the new face of the company.
… and with any luck she'll say, "'Enry 'Iggins, just you wait, you $&?#*$%@-er!"
But that's not all–CC Insider's tipsters have also uncovered the following heart-warming scenes planned for the film (spoiler alert!):
- Female love interest gets male lead to spill the beans about his philandering past by hilariously attaching electrodes to his genitals
- Male lead charmingly gets a table at a popular restaurant by slowly removing each of the Maitre d's fingernails with pliers
- Female love interest wins over male lead's meddling ex-girlfriend the way only a sassy, streetwise girl can: mace under the eyelids
- A four-way split-screen shot featuring caressing hands, smiling lips, an unsnapping bra, and a severed toe
- Not to give away the ending, but it'll have Roger Ebert saying, "Waterboarding has never been so sexy!"
- Some kind of countdown
