Would you want it to focus on your childhood? Your accomplishments? Your family? What part of your life should the movie highlight on? What's the best part of your life that the movie should not miss?

Oh, I guess how my mom influenced my social attitudes like..oh..being socially color blind, generous of nature, about being able to laugh thru sarcasm and such about social absudities, about applying christian philosophy to social format..That woman taught me many things by just being who she was.. Enjoy!

that's one sweet and inspiring movie..a movie that will honor your mom because of the things she did to you and how she influenced you to become who you are right now..I bet you'll just be the "best supporting actress" on that movie!! :D thanks for the response greenfeathers!!

oops..i am really sorry about that.. what I was just trying to say though is that your mom will surely steal the limelight from you..it should be your movie but all the honors go to her..very sweet :D

It would be titled. The Life Lined with a Lineman. Would tell of the work and moves we had to move as a family and things that we had to go thru to live it.

it would focus on my childhood issues and my teenage years and how i came from that into the life that i am yet to have. this is because while i have had great moments in my life - snippets of wonder - it has been a struggle as i was/am abused by my mother and am currently suffering depression. but i am fighting it and hope to be able to live the life i want without the challenges i now face and become a doctor. so i would want the movie to emphasise this achievement - leaving the dark and finding the light.

I think the most important part of my story would be my survival in spite an emotionally abusive upbringing full of dysfunction and lack of affection. I think I would have a lot to offer people who may be going through the same issues I did. So my movie would be something about picking up the pieces after the damage inflicted on my spirit.

My High School to College life. Because I did so many different things, learned so many things, had a complicated love life, best of friends, shared so many memories and all of them are really worth it and so nice to reminisce every now and then.

If a moive where to be made of my life, it would have to be aobut my accomplishments. that is if I were to become famos, but that seems unlikely at this time in my life. I do not want them to talk about my childhood that much. not much to tell realy.

Hi calai, I would like a movie about my life to start from the day I was made redundant, in 1007, and my move to Asia. Also my fights with the buracrats in the government, and my final move back to Thailand, at the end of next year.

it should focus on my fantasy life and my fiction - the rest of my life is deadly boring!

I guess the fact that I had to fight hard to have a family and we achieved it. There were many rough years when thing were hard but that was the most important goal in my life.

It is my childhood. I can't forget my colorful childhood. It's the best part of my life. I can't forget the memory of swimming in the river or roaming in the woods. If I get an opportunity to produce a movie my theme will be childhood life.

Hi calai, well, I have had my share of problems, admittedly more than people I know. But then I cant really say that because I dont really know their lives in depth, do I? After coming to mylot, I learnt I am not the only one! And this makes it easier for me take things in my stride. Any film on me? It would b on my attitude, without such attitude and hobbies I doubt if I could have remained sane. I love music, I love jokes and I love reading, painting, stitching, and cooking. Apart from watching television and eating of course. And surfing. And earning. ha ha. So there are reasons to overlook the pain in my life - reasons strong enough to overshadow my pain. That would be me.

The house that I designed and the effort that went into it to build and maintain specially the landscaped garden that I designed which needs a lot of care. There would also be a part about the house guests that stayed here and a bit about them too. The plants that grow there and the story behind each and every plant as some were collected from friends, some bought and then a line about each of those friends that gave me those plants. There would also be a bit about the pets that lived there. I think this would be a movie worth watching!!! The title of the movie would be SOLITAIRE as that is the name of my house.

I want to highlight the life of my studying experience, including high school and college stages.
