Do all criminals have an unfinished basement on their houses? Do all interrogations take place in a military bunker filled with all of the tricks of the torture trade?
Scene opens: In the empty dining room of a McDonald’s fast food restaurant. The restaurant has been cleared out of customers. Unfinished food still sits on trays across the room. Camera pulls back to find itself over the back/shoulder of someone who’s hands are tied behind his back, sitting in one of those swiveling plastic chairs. In the distance, in front of him are a handful of thuggish men who are obviously not happy and they are all focused on the tied-up man. In the further distance, over the shoulder of one of the thugs is a cardboard cutout of Ronald McDonald who happens to just be staring into the scene with a more menancing look than one would expect.
And it goes on from there.
I expect to see it in a theater near me sometime soon.
