additional infoWhile working on Furnish, two feature film ideas came to light, both centering around this furniture store, its customers and employees.
IDEA #2 (an Anthology): Five separate stories told from the perspective of people who have never dealt with bad customer service or rude customers in the "Stepford" dimension which they inhabit. But when someone from "another place" interrupts their tranquil existence, everyone has a terrible tale to tell. Vertical Divider
