sarcaustik has few good words for Keira Knightley's acting. I can't say I've noticed. Mmmm, eye candy. I picture a movie starring Keira Knightley in a white corset and Kate Beckinsale in a black one. We'll call it Keira Knightley In A White Corset And Kate Beckinsale In A Black One. Plot ideas, anyone?
Update: 15-rated at most, no nudity. Creativity, please!
Update 2: Now a major motion picture!

Date: 2005-10-06 01:22 pm (UTC)It starts with flashbacks to two young girls entering Big Scary Official Building, one dressed in white, one in black.
Then we see Kate & Kiera walk towards each other, dressed in corsetry, weapons drawn.
Another flashback, K & K are practicing something, still in signature white & black. We try to establish taht they're SooperSikkrit Agents.
Back to "now", K & K have a long drawn-out hand-to-hand combat scene and it ends up with them being emotional and re-befriend each other.
Flashback again, to a betrayal. This might actually be better just before the emotional befriending in the combat scene.
They are now great friends. Slow-dancing in corsets, to violins and candle-light.
Big Menacing Hulk of A Bloke threatens their newfound domestic bliss. The girls go forth to kick Menacing-Bloke Arse.
End with K & K in black/white skimpy designer bathing suits on a sun-drenched beach.
Roll credits.
With enough budget, you could probably spin that to 1h30, almost suitable for a commercial-infested 2h-slot on telly and flog a DVD with juicy extras (the occasional corset pop-out, say), for the 18+ market. A bonus would be atht you can probably make sure there's No explicit Kissing Or Strictly Speaking Immodest Touching on-screen, so there'd be no reason to not showing it. All lesbianism would be neatly in the mind of the viewer. Taht'd upset suitably right-wing born-agains...

Sorry, but in my opinion using cheesecake or explosions (or both) to cover up a badly written or executed story actually makes the shit stink worse.
Must be the actor in me.

Date: 2005-10-06 02:55 pm (UTC)Keira and Kate are relaxing (as much as one can relax in a corset) and drinking tea in the mansion of one or the other's rich father.
Minions arrive and riddle the mansion with automatic firearms before setting off an explosion that kills the father of whichever one is the host.
The ladies dig themselves from the rubble without a scratch on them. They've got strategically placed smudge marks to simulate "injuries". Their hair is sufficiently mussed and tossled to look more like they've just shagged instead of being at the focal point of an explosion. Needless to say, their attire is torn and ragged except for the corsets. These, of course, are clean and without marr.
Vengeance is vowed and the ladies set about searching out the ones who sent the disposable minions after them. They look sexy and sultry as they do moves impossible in the attire they are wearing and leave an impressive body count.
The trail leads the girsl to discover that the villainous masterminds are Helena Bonham Carter and Kate WInslet. Those two had set about to snuff Keira and Kate because there wasn't anymore room in the "I can't act but I look hot in corsets." club.
A four-way chickfight ensues and involves all four getting drenched in water to ensure even more male hormones explode in the theater during the viewing.
The villainesses are dispatched and the heroines walk off screen arm in arm. The final line will be Kate saying to Keira, "Nice boots, by the way."

Date: 2005-10-06 03:28 pm (UTC)Meeting by chance at Spring break in Cancun, they finally get their chance at revenge upon each other in a large pit filled with gelatin.
Halfway through the movie, they change to thongs and mens white dress shirts and have at each other with firehoses.
What?

Nope, can't do it.
Every scenario I come up with, the major plot crisis ends up being about who is on top.
The resolution is most pleasant, however.

Date: 2005-10-07 07:36 am (UTC)Keira and Kate escape from an oppressive Catholic orphanage (Harsh nuns! cold shared dormitories! Snuggling together for warmth at night in white, very worn, nightdresses!)
They go to the Big City, where they have adventures (clubs! bars! dubious men making dubious offers!) And finally make it and open their own business, designing corset-mounted weaponry!
At first I thought they designed corsets, but corsetry and weapons is sexier than just corsets.
