The Usual Suspects
The LAN Airlines in-flight movie descriptions are masterful examples of impressionistic prose, which manage to evoke the spirit of English without actually utilizing the language itself. This is from the summary of The Usual Suspects:
A boat flew up and 27 dead people, founding out a drug traffic operation. The only survival will tell the story that starts with five criminals.
How could I not be immediately compelled to watch the movie after that tour-de-force of a pitch?
