HELP HELP HELP THIS STUPID STORY IS WRITING ITSELF I AM NOT INVOLVED IN THIS I FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN TAKEN PRISONER IN MY OWN BODY AND THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO ACTUALLY PUT THE FUCKING THING ON PAPER BECAUSE OTHERWISE MY BRAIN WILL KEEP WRITING IT AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S ABOUT OH GOD WHAT A CLUSTERFUCK.

IT MIGHT BE ABOUT A CIRCUS I DON'T EVEN KNOW EXCEPT EVERYTHING I WANT TO WRITE RIGHT NOW IS ABOUT CIRCUSES SO THERE YOU GO ALSO I AM SO NOT HAPPY WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT FUCK FUCK FUCK I AM A HOSTAGE TO MY HANDS AND BRAIN I BLAME EVERYONE I KNOW FOR THIS YOU ARE ALL FIRED.

I NEED A DRINK COFFEE IS NO LONGER CUTTING IT WHERE IS THE FUCKING EVERCLEAR? (OF COURSE I HAVE EVERCLEAR, DON'T BE A FOOL. GOD HATES FOOLS.)

ETA: ALSO, MY WRITING SUCKS.

EDITED FURTHER: OH GOD SERIOUSLY MY WRITING IS SO BAD YOU GUYS. SO SO BAD IT SHOULD NEVER BE SEEN IN PUBLIC WHY AM I DOING THIS.

Yes, tell me about that. I realised several hours ago that my characters sound like shit (in three lines of dialogue total) because I can only write ONE VOICE.

If this is really a serious plan, I'll look into the availability of Ocean's Eleven and see what's on YouTube. I have no clue how they talked, but I'm pretty sure that what I'm thinking (very Maltese Falcon Sam Spade) is wrong.

... Uh, I do that. So far no one has noticed. :0

YESS. Uh, I think there might well be clips of them talking somewhere around. Only I'm at work again now and can't go look for them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubcVEuA55jc - Sinatra getting an Oscar, and oh my god does he have a lot of the same verbal tics as Gee.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oH8PyWJG6Y - Sinatra presents an Oscar.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEFfWs8xL4s - Sinatra, late in life, interviewed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sma87ydmSFM - Davis being interviewed about James Dean.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFtIIq0PPvs - Martin being interviewed; this one is pretty clearly scripted, so I don't know how well it works for your purposes. It's hard to find YouTubes of these guys not singing! There's also at least two more parts that are linked in the related box.

There's not really anything on Lawford and Bishop. I don't know if Ocean's Eleven is worth looking at - again, it's scripted, and I'm not sure if you're aiming for scripted or un here.
