Yeah, it's like the psychopath/sociopath's view of empathy. "You don't feel empathy, so why would you be nice or kind? Well, because you might get something out of it, eh? Wink wink." Like...no, most people understand that when people treat them badly, they feel bad, therefore other people feel that when you treat them badly, too. So treat them the way you would want to be treated simply because you don't want to be the cause of more suffering in the world, or you even want to alleviate it for someone.

As a screen writing major I must say, there is not enough here for a full movie. Like basically her grandparents treated people nicely and then got a car. So they did something good got rewarded and that is it. There is no conflict, no real obstacles, almost no info on any of the characters, and almost no plot. Like was the gas station struggling and the family was arguing over how the gas station should run? How does everyone in the family relate to each other? Did he develop a closer friendship with any of the women that gave him a new perspective on life? Is there something special about this car other than it looks cool which can lead to more drama. There is nothing here that says this is fit to be adapted for a feature film. It could be a short story, or maybe a short film but that's it, but not all interesting family stories make good movies.

I'm a writer with some moderate success (nothing major but enough to live on), and I see this a lot where people just throw around the word "copyright" and think it's magic. It can vary depending where you are, but ultimately copyright is just the recognized ownership and right to replicate your original work. You technically don't need to register with the WGA (you can use "The Poor Man's Copyright"; mail it to yourself as register post and never open it). The important point to remember is you can't copyright an idea, just the execution of the idea. So the anecdote about her car can't be copyrighted. Her script can be, and so can the story she structures around it and major plot points, sure, but not the story she told in her TikTok. That's just an anecdote. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she meant to say the script was copyrighted, but even then it's a little silly to go online and tell a story you think is so award winning or is going to get the attention of A24 (especially given the films the tend to go for). There's an interesting story in there, sure; maybe it's "her" going on a road trip to return the car to the son at her dying grandfather's request, and she learns about the good and ill in people across America. It's a good prompt, but hardly a million dollar deal. Also, if she was attached to NBC and Hallmark like she said, why sully those deals by having a stink like "yeah, I would have preferred A24"? It's like telling your boyfriend "you're my placeholder". Even if it's true, there's tact.

Edited comment: I went and watched the original video. I still don’t see it as feature film material, but that makes it more believable to me. If anyone else wants to know the general rest of the story after he gets the car from the old woman: •Mary Kate’s mom ended up getting a job at the gas station •That’s where her mom and dad met, a ton of the family lived and worked there and her uncles met her aunts n stuff too •Old woman brings in a totaled car when her life is already in a terrible place, Grandpa trades her the Lancer for her wrecked car •Entire family goes out to live on a farm •Grandpa gets contacted by that old woman who also essentially gives it (back) to him as a dying wish •keeps it in a barn •Mary Kate grows up on the farm •When she starts learning to drive, grandpa shows her the barn and tells her all these stories •family fixes up the car together There are details in her video that make me feel like her Grandpa told it with a lot of heart. I don’t feel like that came through with her retelling (more than my recap, though) but I think it did for a lot of people who said it should be a movie. It’s a collection of stories that were impactful parts of her family members lives but not unbelievable when compared to any fiction, so I see why Pinely & the guy in the video don’t doubt it’s a true story

That little story isn’t the whole thing dude… Pinely himself said the full video was 5 minutes 😭 he only showed the start, it looks like he cut the video to sum it up but no, he played the first part in full The full video has her whole family story, she tells about how her parents met at the gas station, the car was passed onto someone else and came back to her family after they moved to a farm, she tells a bunch of short family stories in the middle, it would make a cozy family movie. Not my style, but a lot of people like it

Okay, I’ll play devils advocate: Something similar to this already happened way back on tumblr not once but twice. Someone made a cute little post, it gained a lot of traction and people started saying stuff like “omg this needs to be a tv show!!”. Then somebody made a fundraiser saying they were going to make it happen (in both cases, I’m pretty sure they managed to raise a few thousand dollars though). Nothing ever came of it, whether they realised they were in over their heads or it was just an outright scam from the start. So ACTUALLY her thought process was, what if someone took this EVEN FURTHER (but she raised only a fraction of the money they did, fortunately) and it’s brilliant satire, actually (still not what that word means, I know I’m a terrible advocate)

The whole story can be summed up in less than 200 words. What do people actually want from it? A 6 minute story stretched out over 2 hours? I really wish I could figure out what these people expect when they say something should be a movie.

I think the story she told would work really well as a framing device. The story would technically be about her grandpa getting the car, but in reality the plot would really be about interpersonal conflicts and character explorations. Like, her actual story would be on the summary page or the back of the DVD box, and the movie would mainly just be about the interpersonal relationships of the mechanic.

i loved when you revealed she's an artist bc the whole time i was thinking, this is such a great piece of performance art about a specific kind of internet virality - there's the simple, heartwarming moral tale; the lack of attention to detail that unravels the whole yarn when you look twice; the cashing in on online engagement through opaque or nefarious means. i think it's about the trust we put in certain types of people online (she's aspirational, she has a cool car, she's an artist following her dream), the type of stories we want to consume (wholesome, didactic, no ugly moral complexities to contend with) and the outrage we feel when those stories are revealed to be untrue. it's very easy to get scammed and emotionally manipulated, and it's natural to feel angry and ashamed when it happens to you. (i don't fully believe she was scamming people, i think the kickstarter was one of those unbelievable little details that would make you go, huh? bc like you say, it's a tiny budget and why would you need to crowdfund if you have a deal with a studio already? the fact it only raised $500 indicates to me that a lot of people went, huh?) i actually do believe what she says about being satire, bc there are hundreds of real examples you can point to of people doing this kind of thing, and she got exactly what she wanted out of it, which was an emotional reaction from the audience. it's a bizarre lie, and to find out you've taken the bait is emotionally jarring. i do believe she's been working on the story for years, but i don't think any of the rest of it is true, including the car story itself. there is artistry at work here

As someone whose helped with indie films. It's actually common to make your own version of a film before it being picked up. Basically to give them an outline.

Surely her life has had more happen in it that is more fully rounded to be made into a movie than someone gave a relative a car. Like in the same vane I have my great grandads military medal for bravery that he won taking out a machine gun nest at Passchendaele in WW1. It's now split in two because the war deeply effected him and he broke it in two and threw it away. We only have it because his wife took it out and saved it. Everyone has stories similar to that they are not movie worthy, it's only just past youtube comment worthy.
