Andre Washington Begins

WILL SMITH SHIRTLESS(This is a tiny piece of something I’m messing around with in my spare time.

It was gonna be a screenplay, but 20 pages in I realized nobody would ever, ever make this movie, so I’m trying it as a book.

It’s a civil rights movement piece, and if you’ve read my Brad Radby book, you can probably dial in and figure out what it’s about.)

It was Christmas Eve 1968, and Korea was going crazy with war.

There was war everywhere, and people were really upset about how it was happening all over the roofs of their houses.

Especially the Koreans.

They were the most upset because of their houses being the ones the war was happening on top of. That wasn’t all, because sometimes after some war happened on top of the house, the top of the house wasn’t there anymore, and then the war would start happening inside the house.

When this happened, the Koreans were like, “Oh, this is the worst thing ever and we’re also out of pretzels,” except they said it in Korean.

A wild and sexy surprise wrapped up in guns and fire, that’s what this war was.

That’s because it was The Korean War, and unlike all the other wars, this one wasn’t supposed to be hell.

These 149 words were all that Andre Washington could think to himself as he looked across the battlefield that was once downtown Korea City.

(The plural-word-mistake that caused a small pain in your head was on purpose. It’s gonna be okay.)

    I just checked netflix and it appears there are literally zero scripted movies made about the Korean war, or pretzels, or both. Hollywood has really lost a step.

    I'm going to go ahead and point out that the Korean War ended in the early '50s.

    Totally understandable. Without any movies about the war its hard to learn much
