Song lyrics that could be a movie VOL.1


BLOG CONTRIBUTOR








Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots by The Flaming Lips


If we leave the metaphor meaning of the lyrics aside, this could be a psychedelic heroine based epic flick. A thrilling story with several layers, spiced up, fun and cheeky could be found in this hypothetical movie adaptation.

DIRECTED BY:
The first name that comes to my mind is Quentin Tarantino because he has a unique vision and he’s very good writing witty dialogues. Another good option –with a more hectic approach- could be the Russian director Timur Bekmambetov.

ACTRESS: Ziyi Zhang







Wolf like me by TV On The Radio


Every time I listen to this song I think about a frenetic werewolf movie with an eighties hint.

DIRECTED BY:
I think that Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, Vallhalla Rising, Pusher) could do a great work mixing violence, fantasy reminding us to those great movies of our childhood.

ACTORS:
George Lewis Jr, singer of Twin Shadow. I don’t know...just a thought! He has the looks.






Sleeping Lessons by The Shins


Sentences like “A thousand different versions of yourself”, “Just put yourself in my new shoes”, “Jump from the book” and “You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise”, makes me imagine a story where every time you go to sleep you experience parallel lives, alternative dimensions... breaking the mold to escape from the limits of reality. Wicked story - that sounds good actually...don't copy, the idea is mine!

DIRECTED BY:
Duncan Jones has shown his ability to recreate this kind of vibe in films like Moon and Source Code.

ACTORS:
Myself! –just kidding- I love Maggie Gyllenhaall!
