ChickLit Page #10

Synopsis: ChickLit is a comedy drama about four guys trying to save their local pub from closing down. They group write a chick lit, or more specifically a 'mummy porn' novel in the style of 'Fifty Shades of Grey' and it gets snapped up. The only snag is that the publisher insists that the young woman 'author' does press and publicity. The guys have to keep their involvement a secret and so engage an out of work actress to 'role play' the part of the author. This leads to her becoming the star in the film of the book, the tables are turned on the guys and she is in control - leaving them with the awful prospect of having to secretly churn out sex novels for the foreseeable future.

What about it?

Well, apparently, it had

a great first weekend,

whatever that means, and then the

public decided it was drivel.

So, no money,

and no follow-up book deal.

But get this into

your thick heads.

Zoe decided it was all wrong

before the film tanked.

There was never gonna be

any more money.

We really didn't want the money.

Honestly, Jen.

I actually accept that.

But you'd better accept

that my lovely sister

is the only one of you who comes

out of this with any dignity.

Now how much money

do you have left?

About 900 quid.

Geoffrey, 900 quid.

Well, let's have a party.

[Music playing]

I got love,

I gotta say

I got a big heartbeat

and it beats all day

I got a sneaky

kinda feeling

that we're gonna be

feeling good today

and keep on lovin'

and keep on lovin'...

Put it there.

Now we're playing!

...keepin' on,

keepin' on, yeah!

[Music continues]

Hi.

Hi.

I'm sorry your film tanked.

It's not my film.

Look, I don't have a moral

problem with any of it.

And I'm sure

there's someone planning

the "next big chick hit"

as we speak,

but it wasn't real, any of it.

You know, 'I had two body doubles

for most of the filming?

One for b*obs and one for bum.

And I left my sweet

supportive agent

for a big cheese who already

doesn't return my calls.

And it just wasn't fun.

What do actors do

when they're unemployed?

Have you got any vacancies?

Yeah.

You sexy thing

you don't even know

how you shake me so

you shake-a, shake-a,

shake me

oh, when I speak

I struggle with the words

'cause you take

my breath away

take my breath away -

tell me what you're thinking

so let me sail on your

brainwaves, I'm your pirate

cruising in your

airspace, I'm your pilot

I'ma be

whatever you need

'cause that's exactly

what you do for me

and I wrote it all down

in a little notebook

just how I feel

right now

and this

is how it sounds

so, yeah,

I'll scratch your back

and you scratch mine

I'll watch your back

when you walk the line

I've got you, baby,

I got you, yeah

I'll scratch your back

and you scratch mine

I'll watch your back

when you walk the line

I got you, baby

I got you

I'll scratch your back

and you scratch mine

I'll watch your back

when you walk the line

I got you, baby,

I got you

I got you, I got you,

I got you

and I'll scratch your back

and you scratch mine

I'll watch your back

when you walk the line

I got you, baby,

I got you.

I'm seeing double

you must be a Gemini

is it me,

or do I see sparks?

Or is the light of your

disco-ball eyes

the headlights

in the dark

ooh

no, I don't

come here a lot

I don't usually ride

on these Cypher club vibes

but, tonight

I feel like breaking stride

and I bet

you're glad I did

'cause I think

you're beautiful

stone-cold beautiful

icebox beautiful

cool as a winter wave

cool as the rocks

in the drinks

that I'm gonna buy you

it's just gentlemen talk

ooh, ooh

gentlemen talk

to a lady

gentlemen talk

ooh, ooh

gentlemen talk to a lady

gentlemen talk

ooh, ooh

to a real woman

ooh, ooh, yeah

my watch stopped,

so you must be a good time

so tell me about yourself

what do you like?

What are you into?

What do you want to do?

Want to get out of here?

Want me to come with you?

You're beautiful

stone-cold beautiful

icebox beautiful

cool as a winter wave

cool as the water that

I'll pour ya in the morning

it's just gentlemen talk

ooh, ooh

gentlemen talk to a lady

gentlemen talk

ooh, ooh

gentlemen talk to a lady

gentlemen talk

ooh, ooh

gentlemen talk

to a real woman
