It'd either be a drama or a very dark comedy.

A Soviet film about fertilizing the corn crop, with me as the fertilizer.

It’s like “type.” For movies, it’d be drama, comedy, fantasy, sci-fi, romantic comedy, war, horror, etc.

I think mine would be really bleak. I don't know what genre but I wouldn't recommend watching it.

Historical fiction. There is a basis there but it would have to be embellished a lot to make for a good movie.

Sometimes it feels like I’m living a Lifetime movie.

Uhmm. My life so far would actually make an incredible movie! But more of unusual experiences that if it became a film film critics would say it wasn't realistic, because the things I have been through people watching would find it hard to believe?
Some of the films that seem unbelievable seem tame compared to my life?

I am one of those people who innocently walks into situations where others assume I am part of something I am not? A bit like Johnny English but not realizing I am Johnny?

I don't know!

I think mine would be 90 minutes worth of me writing graffiti on the walls of the most filthiest public toilets in town and every now and then I'd start shouting obscenities at all the broken mirrors...

Yeah I think that's actually a pretty good portrait of my life in a short movie.

Currently, it would be a 'psychological revenge thriller'.

Mine would be something long and meandering, occasionally thought-provoking but lacking both narrative drive and a satisfying conclusion. 3 stars.

A feelbad romantic action movie with an autistic lead character.
