Short Film Idea

Someone should make a short movie about a character who compulsively finishes reading whatever he starts.

Key scenes:

Intro voiceover where narrator talks, Memento-style, about his "condition," and the necessary steps he must take to keep himself from starting to read things. These include:

-Flashback shot of the guy throwing away all his books, after he first developed his condition.
-Flip-down shades with opaque lenses for when he's out in the world.
-"How severe is my condition? If I logged on to the Internet, I'd probably die within a couple of days, of starvation."

Flash to scenes documenting his troubles. This can be a quick montage including:

-Running alongside a bus, reading a particularly lengthy advertisement posted on the side.
-Character is on couch in front of TV. Roommate wants to watch TV. Small confrontation, roommate produces a book and sneaks it into character's field of view. Character begins reading, mutters "dammit." Roommate takes remote.
-Scene at work. Character sitting at desk with two large piles of paper. After character finishes reading a sheet of paper, he flips it over to the other pile. Boss approaches, asks why memos haven't been passed out yet. Character replies, "It'll be a couple more hours. I'm passing them out as fast as I can."
-On a date with a girl in a restaurant. Waiter comes by, character is reading wine list.
Waiter: "Have you decided yet?"
Character: "I'll need a few more minutes."
