Stan has written many screenplays, none of which has yet made it on to the big or small screen. His most successful projected was Romeo Loves Jane - which was a finalist in the prestigious Chesterfield Awards. Here's the synopsis, and if you steal it - look out -it's registered with the WGA and copyright protected. If you're interested - contact me so we can do lunch and deal. Romeo Loves Jane is a romantic comedy screenplay. I have sold several pornplays, including Cunt, The Sexbomber and Aladdin's Lump. Unfortunately the production company went belly-up (or was it face-down?) so the rights reverted back to me. So if you're in the market for intelligent porn with just the right amount of plot to interest couples who aren't afraid to get down and dirty with some raunchy humor and sexy satire thrown in, contact me and we can do lunch in the Valley. Here's the Synopsis of Romeo loves Jane ********************************************************************************************* It's a Romantic Comedy Where the Melodrama of Classic Literature Meets the Outrageous Scandal of Tabloid Journalism TARZAN'S JANE has fallen in love with JULIET's ROMEO... Now Tarzan really has something to yell about. It's the scandal of the century. Literary characters are supposed to be well-behaved, do what their authors tell them and not go around having affairs with characters from other novels. The public wants to know, "What's gone wrong with our fiction?" ACT ONE And are there ever unusual events at the Globe. Dead authors and characters coexist in the present day, just like movie directors and film stars. Shakespeare drowns his sorrows with Tarzan's pal, Cheetah the talking chimp. Rita tips off Nick to the spectacle. He sets up surveillance disguised as a drunk. Nick discovers that Romeo and Jane have formed an alliance with Big Chief Ebert Siskel, a two-headed witch doctor film critic who loves to change plotlines in search of two thumbs up reviews. Further, Nick learns that Edgar Rice Burroughs has sent Tarzan to Verona to kill Romeo. ACT TWO Nick observes as the party unfolds. Lord Capulet takes Tarzan aside, questioning the apeman's intentions. Romeo's loyal friend Mercutio intervenes, letting slip that he knows about Tarzan and Juliet's bedroom antics. Tarzan explodes with rage. He kills the Elvised Mercutio for besmirching Juliet. His trademark yell receding into the distance, Tarzan flees, the militia and many fancy-dressed celebrities on his heels. Juliet is heartbroken at losing another lover. On her famous balcony she decides to jump to her death. Nick waits below, his camera and tape recorder recording her suicide speech. Juliet's tears splash on Nick. His cynical resolve melts. He sees a chance to redeem himself for the previous suicide he caused and all the lives he's ruined. Despite the fact that he could scoop the competition with the exclusive story of the teen starlet's demise, Nick convinces Juliet not to jump. In this pivotal moment, Nick ceases being a sleazy tabloid reporter who capitalizes on sorrow and tragedy. He realizes he's got a bigger story to write about how true love can triumph over greed and banner headlines. Overjoyed at saving Juliet's life, he decides to help all the wayward characters find happiness. A chase through numerous novels and movies ensues as Nick the Nose battles the authors and Big Chief Ebert Siskel. ACT THREE Nick takes over the famed Cafe Americain, but he's not happy. He's helped everyone find true love and has quit the seedy tabloid business, but he's lonely. As he listens to Sam's smoky piano-playing he realizes how blind he's been. He's uncovered hundreds of scandals but he couldn't see that his true love has all along been right under his nose. He immediately invites Rita to Casablanca to run the Cafe with him. She accepts. When she steps from the plane they rush into each others arms, a two thumbs up happy ending for Nick and Rita.
