Big City is currently on an extended hiatus. Not dead yet. I've recently completed a two-hour pilot script which is floating slowly around Hollywood. - Eric
THE LOWDOWN:
Laura is contacted by an old friend who now produces the home improvement show WEEKEND SURPRISE. She decides to take the weekend and visit the location where the show is shooting. She soon finds herself face to face with an all too perfect family. When the husband goes missing, old memories and wounds come to the surface that make Laura re-examine her life and her future.
SNIPPET:
"...As the door slammed, Laura finally let the sobs wrack her body. Her legs felt suddenly as if they were made of clay, unable to hold her frame any longer, and she sank to the floor where she had stood. She didn't know how long she sat there, the pain coming in waves, unable to stop the flood of tears that escaped her, her loose hair wet and clinging to her face. The sounds that escaped her sounded, and felt, inhuman. And suddenly, her stomach started to heave, and she made it to the bathroom just as she couldn't hold it in any longer. The vomit came, like the tears, violent and wrenching, and she didn't think it would ever stop, even when she knew there was no more to give. Finally, as it ebbed, she crumpled to the bathroom floor, exhausted, drained, unable to move or feel, and still the tears would not stop. Eventually, as she fell asleep there on the floor, her head resting on the cool porcelain, she wondered if anything would ever be okay, ever again.
