The majority rules that deceased and/or living actors be used in polls.
Thank you for voting!
Some have suggested actors who are no longer with us to be used in the polls. This poll is to find out whether actors gone by should be included. What do you think? Your comments are greatly appreciated! Petra

In Love on Coffee Breaks
And the winners are:
Juliette Binoche (44%)
Roberto Benigni (44%)
Thank you for voting!
FADE IN:
INT. POLICE STATION. A SMALL TOWN IN ITALY - DAY
A POLICEMAN on his coffee break observes a WOMAN enter a beauty salon across the street; follows her with loving eyes as she makes her way to the telephone.
INTERCUT BETWEEN THE POLICEMAN'S AND WOMAN'S CONVERSATION:
GABRIELLA
Hello, my love.
MICHAEL
Hello, Sunshine.
GABRIELLA
You forgot your wallet.
MICHAEL
I was expecting your call.
GABRIELLA
What?
MICHAEL
I swear...I've been waiting for an hour. Ask Joe.
GABRIELLA
(laughing)
Okay, stop fooling around. When can you pick it up?
MICHAEL
I'm busy now. I'm having my coffee.
Gabriella peers through the blinds of the beauty salon.
MICHAEL
She's at the window, looking at me without seeing me.
(leaning his chin in his hand)
She parks in forbidden places...to tease the policeman who admires her instead of fining her.
Gabriella LAUGHS as she releases the blinds.
MICHAEL
You find it funny? How I torture over my love for you?
GABRIELLA
Okay, ciao.
She hangs up the telephone, takes one last glance out through the blinds, and walks away.
MICHAEL
(sighs)
Ciao bella! Until my next coffee break.

FADE IN:
Ext. Log Cabin. Mid-1800's - Day
A young COWBOY rides up to a modest log cabin set on a farm. As he climbs down off his horse,
geese snap, chickens CACKLE. A WOMAN, his mother's age, opens the door, observing him with a shotgun.
MARGARET
What can I do for you?
JAKE
Thank you, ma'am. I was wondering if you could use any help around the farm?
Mrs. Johnson sent me.

No, ma'am. Not yet.
She gestures he come into the cabin.

JAKE
Thank you, ma'am.
Awkward silences exchange between them as Margaret sets a plate of fried chicken and biscuits, and a cup of coffee before him.
MARGARET
What's your name, son?
JAKE
Jake Hadden.
Margaret's eyes widen; she stumbles. Jake quickly assists her to a chair.
JAKE
Are you all right, maw?
She gazes at him questioning how he knew she was his mother, then notices a pendant worn around Jake's neck.
MARGARET
Paw gave you that pendant, didn't he?
Jake's eyes well with tears.
MARGARET
I gave it to him before I left.
While Jake kneels before her, Margaret begins to cry.
JAKE
Don't cry, maw.
MARGARET
I should never have left you, son. Can you forgive me?
Jake rises to hug her.

Donald Sutherland (60%)
Thank you for voting!
EXT. ZOO - DAY
A senior MARRIED COUPLE is strolling past the Gorilla Exhibit. Two gorillas, sitting just behind the fence, are grooming each other.
GLENDA
Look, dear. I can almost touch them.
(smiling)
Aren't they sweet?
HENRY
Yes, but not as sweet as you, dear.
Henry begins to groom Glenda's hair and caresses her neck.
GLENDA

What are you doing?!
A ZOO KEEPER appears with the gorillas' lunch of cottage cheese, raspberries, and banana tree leaves.
GLENDA
That looks interesting.
HENRY
Mmm, but not as delicious as the cottage cheese, raspberries, and bananas you fed me this morning.
Henry returns to Glenda, grooming her, showering her with affections.
GLENDA
(pondering)
It really does work.
