Oops, He Did it Again

I had a thought today about a Lynchian movie about an old man who retires and decides to reenact the Britney Spears meltdown step-by-step. Marrying a backup dancer; chopping off his hair; nearly overdosing. The whole thing. And it would address how society interprets the actions of an old man vs. that of a starlet. He'd be played by a cute but curmudgeonly type (maybe Wallace Shawn?) and the wife he ditches would be played by Barbara Walters. Thoughts?

  1. Can we add a twist that the curmudgeonly man is also the president of the United States? We could open over July 4th weekend.
