Adaptation of Morning Breakfast

I really love directing movies and I had so much fun with this! It is based on the poem "Morning Breakfast" by Jacques Prevert. It was an awesome experience and a fun day! I would definitely like to make a movie again. For some reason I only have ideas for horrors and suspense. You'll notice that my movie is quite morbid! You can also watch a movie that I was in, directed by Youssef Lehnin. He adapted the same poem. All films and the poem can be found below:





"Unfortunate" from Head Make Book on Vimeo.



Below is the poem it is based on:

Breakfast

He poured the coffee
Into the cup
He poured the milk
Into the cup of coffee
He added the sugar
To the coffee and milk
He stirred it
With a teaspoon
He drank the coffee
And put back the cup
Without speaking to me
He lit a cigarette
He blew some rings
With the smoke
He flicked the ashes
Into the ashtray
Without speaking to me
Without looking at me
He got up
He put his hat
On his head
He put on
His raincoat
Because it was raining
He went out
Into the rain
Without a word
Without looking at me
And I
I took my head
In my hands
And I wept
