Indie film clichés



m_rturnage sent me this wonderfully obvious indie film idea after our barrage of made up film pitches in FilmCouch #65 - Indiewood Mashup. (Sorry, turnage I took so long to find it.)

 

 Greasy Cheese

On  a lonely back road... in the middle of flat Middle America... is Greasy Cheese.

Greasy Cheese is an old all-nite roadside diner, its only employees are the slightly anti-Semitic, yet lovable,owner/fry cook and the sassy, wisdom-dispensing transsexual waitress.

Rick and Carol are a young couple on the run, with only their beat up old car and a trunk full of stolen money to keep them company. Their car breaks down less than a mile from Greasy Cheese and barely limps into the parking lot before giving up the ghost. It will be a day before the tow truck can get to them, leaving the young couple stranded for 24 hours at the diner.

Enter Sheriff McBiff, the corrupt cop that really stole the money and who Rick and Carol double-crossed. McBiff is hot on the couple's trail, and stop at nothing to get his money back, even if that means performing a one-man siege armed of an all-night diner.

During the course of a 24-hour period, a fry cook will learn the error of his ways, a corrupt sheriff's mysterious past will come back to haunt him, and a young couple on the rocks will find new love. 

At turns suspenseful, hilarious, and heartwarming, Greasy Cheese is the full meal deal.
