Q: Build a movie plot around this: What did Bigelow swallow? iridium
A: Frank Bigelow (Edmond O'Brien) begins his tale by walking into a Los Angeles police station and telling a detective "I want to report a murder... mine." Oddly, the police almost seem to have been expecting him and already know who he is since there has been an APB on him since yesterday.A flashback begins with Bigelow in his hometown of Banning, California where he is an accountant and notary public. He decides to take a one-week vacation in San Francisco, but this does not sit well with Paula Gibson (Pamela Britton), his confidential secretary and girlfriend, as he does not want her to accompany him.Bigelow meets and accompanies a group of randy men from a sales convention on a night on the town. At a "jive" nightclub called "The Fisherman", unnoticed by Bigelow, a stranger swaps his drink for another. (The nightclub scene includes one of the earliest depictions of the Beat sub-culture). The next morning, Bigelow feels ill. He visits a doctor at the general hospital, where tests reveal he swallowed a poison called "luminous toxin" for which there is no antidote. A second opinion confirms the grim diagnosis, and the other doctor implies that the poisoning must have been deliberate. Bigelow remembers his drink tasted strange. He flees from the hospital in a panic, wondering who poisoned him and why.With just a day or two to live at most, Bigelow sets out to untangle the events behind his impending death, interrupted occasionally by phone calls from Paula, whom never finds out about the predicament that he is in. Paula provides the first clue: a man named Eugene Philips who had urgently been trying to contact Bigelow by phone for the past two days has died, purportedly a suicide. Bigelow travels to Philips' import-export company in Los Angeles, meeting a variety of suspicious characters. He first meets Miss Foster (Beverly Garland), Philips' secretary; then Mr. Halliday (William Ching), the company's comptroller, who tells him that Eugene Philips committed suicide after jumping out of a window from his...

[Q]: Build a movie plot around this: What is Dr. Wernher's mission? Is to destroy the US's Earth-orbiting space station
****
[A]: It's the future - in 1970 :-) - and the first moon base has been in existence for a little while. The "enemies of freedom", including a Minister, need to destroy the base in two months' time. They are going to exchange one of scientists for a look-alike. Finally, Doctor Wernher (Larry Johns) is replaced at a hotel in San Francisco. They put a hidden microphone in the room of Doctor Wernher. Mr. Roundtree (Herb Jacobs) talks to him and tells Doctor Wernher's body double to destroy the station. Wernher asks for a car to leave the hotel and asks for a bellboy (Robert Paltz) to take his luggage out. The bellboy hits him in the nape of his head. He's paid on the spot. When the real bellboy arrives, the change has already taken place.Back at USSF SPACOM, the army good guys discuss the convenience of taking a civilian with them, as they could take the photographs they need, but it's about the politics, says Gen. Pappy Greene (Hayden Rorke). The White House tells Colonel Briteis (Donna Bartell) to check everything around the base. Maj. Bill Moore (Ross Ford) will begrudgingly be the pilot of the flight to the base. Donna and Polly Prattles (Barbara Morrison) enter the office. Donna will be the pilot, but Bill will be her co-pilot. She tries to avoid it, as Bill is jealous of her. [It's nice how her boss calls him spoiled and threatens to spank her if she does misbehave.] Polly is a journalist who wants to understand why the base and making photographs of the surrounding area. The space station Doctor Wernher wants to destroy will be the first step to build the base, essential for our future peace and democracy. Polly gets excited when she learns that she will weigh nothing because of the lack of gravity.The rocket is finally sent to space. Bill wants to hear a baseball match, and Donna mocks him. Donna wants to try to land on the Moon, not just going round the dark side with Dr Wernher. Preparing for the visit, Donna goes through some corridors with "PLEASE, DO NOT WALK ON THE WALLS" caption written on. Donna, Bill...
Question: Build a movie plot around this: Who became friends? Nietzsche and Breuer
Answer:
The film opens with the Russian-born novelistwho eventually became a member of Freud's 'Vienna Circle'-- Lou Andreas-Salome (Katheryn Winnick) who had an unconsummated (Platonic) 'love affair' with German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche (Armand Assante), and to whom he allegedly proposed in 1882 (although whether her claims are true is very much up for debate) writing a letter to Dr Josef Breuer (Ben Cross), after hearing of his newly developed talking cure (Breuer was a friend of Sigmund Freud (Jamie Elman), who also appears in the story, and one of the influential fathers of psychoanalysis.). The two meet, and a reluctant and troubled Breuer agrees to Salome's plan; to cure the intense migraine attacks that plague Nietzsche, and at the same time, without his knowing, cure the despair that her refusal of marriage has inflicted upon him.Salome has persuaded Franz Overbeck (Nietzsche's friend) to send him to Breuer, however, Nietzsche offers no support to Breuer, so the course of treatment must end. In a chilling parallel, an encounter with a mistreated horse causes Nietzsche to redeem his appointment with Breuer (Nietzsche finally went mad after stopping a man from whipping a horse using his own body, before breaking down in tears and descending into insanity). Nietzsche later visits a whorehouse, where he has another attack of migraine, exacerbated by the overuse of a sleeping draught. Nietzsche decides that he will, instead of pursuing treatment, leave for Basel. Meanwhile, an up-and-coming psychologist Sigmund Freud, friend of Josef and Mathilde Breuer, suggests that if Breuer was to make some confession to Nietzsche, he may stop seeing any positive sentiment shown as being a bid for power, and indulge in confessions of his own.So, the next time they met, Breuer makes the suggestion that, while he treats Nietzsche's body, Nietzsche must "treat" Breuer of the despair that he feels after falling in love with one of his patients, Bertha Pappenheim (played by Michal Yannai), otherwise known as Anna O., a...
