Storyboarding Dorothy and Toto

We don't know whether Fuhrman storyboarded Murder in Greenwich himself the way other producers with artistic talent did. An overabundance of screenshots in his movie that recall scenes from other movies and TV shows suggest that he did.

According to the process that Fuhrman said he used to create the composite character he was pretending to be on the McKinny tapes, anyone in a screenplay can stand in for anyone else at a given time to get a given idea across. The first order of business, though, is to get all of the basic elements on the table. Then you can move them around as required or desired.

This is what happens inside of a minute and a half of when you first see Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz and Dorothy Moxley in Murder in Greenwich... 

Dorothy Gale is running home from school with her dog Toto. She puts down her books, picks up the dog and talks to him. One minute forty seconds later we get newly hatched chickens (chicks) and the full story of Miss Gulch, her cat, a rake and a threat to get the sheriff.  If you're storyboarding Murder in Greenwich on a Wizard of Oz model, you can use the leather strap on Fuhrman's utility bag and the books staked up next to it for Dorothy's books held together by a leather strap. You can use Maggie Grace's face on his laptop computer screen for Dorothy's (Judy Garland's) age, a shot of four young women for "chicks,"  Liddy Holloway's character talking to a cop for Dorothy's name, The detective for the sheriff, Maggie Grace's name (Margaret Grace) for Miss. Gulch (Margaret Hamilton) and a dog that looks enough like Toto to get the part in a Wizard of Oz remake. All of these things inside of two minutes for both movies.
