Pillow Talk

Storyform for the Overall Story in Activities

There are two ways of looking at Pillow Talk. The first sees the Overall Story Throughline--the part about Singles Struggling with Partners--as a problem with psychology. In that version manipulations are seen as the source of difficulties. The other way (the one presented below) sees the Overall Story throughline as a problem of physics. In this version activities are seen as the source of difficulties.  SYNOPSIS: "A man and woman share a telephone line and despise each other, but then he has fun by romancing her with his voice disguised."  Synopsis source: IMDB.com
