Bill Hicks: Imagery

Some images to sketch and weave into the Bill Hicks screenplay.

+ Speeding sedan tips and crashes over a safety barrier, tumbling through the air as plumes of thick grey smoke billow out.

+ Approaching a doorway of brilliant white light in an empty suburban street.

+ In an open field, rocks levitate and rise around a floating orb of light.

+ Burning sedan plummets off an overpass.

+ Sand encroaches through a derelict house in the desert.

+ In a dark woodland, a thin beam of light shoots down from the night sky straight down to the forest floor. Then another. And another.

+ American Indian elder watches Hicks drive past, a tear rolls down his cheek.

+ Sedan submerged under the waters of a gray lake.

+ Edges of the moon shift and ripple and tear away.

+ Looking up from the bottom of a swimming pool, fallen leaves floating on the surface of the shifting water. Someone steps up to the edge and looks down.
