NEW CAP BLOG
Captain America! Redefining Modern Myth is a new blog about Cap presented by Runic Films and featuring filmmaker Ben Alpi and writer/artist Rick Arthur. It asks the question:
How do you write a two hour movie for a character with 70 years of source material?
It is a search for character through writing and contains many surprises.
Excerpt as follows:
Young Steve Rogers is prone behind a gigantic stump using a crutch as a makeshift rifle. His toy soldiers are lined up in various positions on the flat surface of the stump and he is studying them keenly. His metal leg braces gleam in the bright sun.
STEVE'S FATHER:
I see you're playing soldier again, Stevie.
STEVE (7 y/o)
(mumbles)
Yes, father.
STEVE'S FATHER
Why aren't you horsing with the other kids today?
STEVE (7 y/o)
(glances at legs in brace)
They went to the river. I can't be near the water.
