What If Your Favorite Soap Were A Film...

[stenbeck212]

I think I was still wondering about the recent thread on who people would choose to write for soaps from other mediums. Anyway, what would you imagine as the perfect scenario for your favorite soap as a film. I mean actors, director, writers, etc. As for me...

As the World Turns

Synopsis

Lily finds out that she's adopted, while James Stenbeck has just come back to haunt Barbara and kidnap Paul. Kim finds out that Bob slept with Susan. Margo is raped. The ending sets up a sequel as the once dead Shannon appears at Duncan and Jessica's doorstep, Connor scores a coup at the Walsh stockholder's meeting, and Frannie discovers a creepy room in her boyfriend Doug's house.

Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (Since Robert Altman obviously can't do it)

Produced by Miramax

Adapted Screenplay by David Mamet, based on the work of Douglas Marland
