The Perfect Film

Published On April 4, 2012 | By dominic | Alan

I have two big joys in my life: I love having big bets on sport and I love movies.

My ideal movie would be about a pro punter, and there is only one man I would like to take the part as my on-screen hero.

Liam Neeson

How brilliant would it be to watch Liam Neeson smashing up Vegas, then on to Monte Carlo to strike fear into the casino owners with his classic attitude and cold stare?

Imagine Liam (the best actor ever) sitting at a black-jack table just staring at the dealer as the sweat drips off the poor guy’s brow.

Then he is on course at Cheltenham smashing up the on-course bookies with two ladies on each arm… It would be brilliant.

As he strikes his massive bets, an onlooker asks: “How do you stay so calm?”

He just comes out with classic tag line such as “I STARE STRAIGHT BACK AT THEM!”.

Or, as he reads through his Racing Post, he says aloud to himself while looking for winners: “I WILL FIND YOU AND I WILL BACK YOU”.

In my eyes this would be the perfect film, but in reality it’s probably the worst movie idea of all time. Either way, I know who would be first in the queue to see this bad boy on opening night!

What do you think readers? A great idea for a movie or one for the bin?
