EXCITED!!

So I am really excited to go forward with my new idea for my script about Morty just basically being a lunatic. By doing the script this way, it will be a lot more original in the sense that it won't be another "Teeny Bopper" movie, and will have some edge. I do want Morty to indefinitely kill off Natalie's boyfriend, and for her to freak out when this happens. I am also thinking that since he has always had it in his mind that she "wanted him to do all of this", when she send him to jail, I want him to say to himself how this is also part of the plan. How he needed to go to jail so that the crime would be solved, but that "she would be back". You then see him in his jail cell, with her picture, (that he stole from locker) repeating over and over, she will be back. By leaving it this way it almost would leave the audience feeling very uneasy and not sure what would happen to this lost soul.
I also the script to have internal dialog that will narrative all of the acts Morty will commit. It will describe all of the interactions between him and Natalie,and all of the "signs" she gives him to get him to kill her boyfriend. Once he does kill him, I want there to be flashbacks of all these interactions between Natalie and Morty to show what they did in fact mean, and how crazy he really is. I want it to have a sort of "Donnie Darko" type of feel to it, at least the character that will play Morty.
