I have begun to write my own feature legth film lately, i have included what i have so far of this although it needs editing as i now know more about script writing.
Un-named Film
A Brief Introduction.
As I was walking the 5 mile treck home one night after a heavy night of drinking I started to have this idea for a film that in a few years time I would be able to make, at this moment it is a little too ambitious to put into production and so I am going to work on it through time and I want to show this to people to get them interested and get people to help work on it over time.
The Outlining Idea.
The idea for this film is fairly simple, the story follows that of the main character as he stumbles through the world in his drug addicted personal little world. Also with the main character throughout is his girlfriend. At the start of the film everything seems to be ok for the couple as they take the drugs and have fun while they do it. Each day they would get up and do the same routine, going out stealing the money to fuel their addiction, then taking the drugs.
However one day everything goes badly for our main character, who henceforth fill be known as Tez to make things easier. Due to a blunder by Tez (the nature of this blunder is as of yet un-known), a new dealer in town loses a large quantity of cocaine. In his fury this new big time dealer threatens Tez, giving him 3 days to come up with the money or he will be killed for his mistake. As the deadline draws ever closer Tez’s girlfriends is taken to act as a motivation for Tez, who is not only feeling the anger and pain at losing his girlfriend and having to find a large quantity of cash but also is feeling the lack of drugs after the few days of not being able to take any.
On the day of the deadline Tez enters the derelict warehouse used for the meeting to meet the dealer. As Tez has only gotten half the money he is knelt in front of the dealer crying and begging for more time, at this point we have not seen the dealer and this scene continues to show him only through the shadows, he agrees to give him two more days as he is a fair man, however he would not give him his girlfriend back as she acts as such a stimulant to him.
On the second day Tez is told to meet the dealer in the open for the first time, they make the meeting public to show that the dealer has no fear of the police or other authorities. As he gets to the meeting place Tez knows something is wrong as his girlfriend is stood unconscious. He is told she has been poisoned and must fight the dealer if he is to save her.
At this point I want to integrate in to the film a scene I thought of a long time ago and think would look amazing if done properly. In this scene I want a full fight scene lasting about ten to fifteen minutes, the fight would take place on the fountain in Nottingham city centre, with the water flying and the fight that could be choreographed I think this scene could be made to be stunning.
Tez fails to get the antidote and kneels with her head in his lap crying and screaming in anguish. He is given a further two days and in his anguish is unable to bring himself to get up and take vengeance.
As he arrives home he finds out he has had his house taken off him and has nowhere to live, sleeping the night in the gutter he begins a desperate struggle to get the money and save his own life, robbing post offices and banks and mugging old ladies.
He arrives at the new meeting place with the money and throws it at the dealer’s feet. The dealer is apologising for the methods it took to get the money but cruelty was needed to motivate him, all the time Tez is not listening and his mind is numb, he keeps seeing himself brutally murdering the dealer. He is brought out of his deep thought by one of the dealer lackeys walking up and whispering to the dealer. Suddenly looking angry the dealer looks at Tez and begins to yell, the cash is over a thousand pounds short, Tez begins to cry and plead, insisting all the money was there before.
The dealer nods to someone in the shadows and in the small sphere of light we can see and arm raises slowly, as it does so he catches sight of one of the dealers henchman and recognises him as one of the police that busted him in the first place, as the gun is raising flashes and interspersed within and we see images of the henchman taking the thousand pound, we see shots before the blunder of the dealer setting the blunder up and he realises what has happened.
We see Tez look up and say a single word “Why?” the only response from the dealer is to look directly at Tez, a close up of the dealers mouth and we see and hear him say “kill him” in a very slightly slowed down shot. The gun is fired from the shadows and Tez drops dead, we see him hit the floor in slow motion and see his wide eyed head hit the floor. As we watch a pair of feet emerge from the shadows and the camera pans up, as the camera gets to the killers face we see the sunken hollow face of his girlfriend, she is crying as she quietly apologises to her former boyfriend. We see a flash back of the day on the fountain and a closer look at the girl reveals subtle differences that explain it was not her who had been killed.
The dealer walks over to her and whispers comforting words to her while shooting up for her, there will be more flash backs of her with the dealer in days before and all though we cannot hear what is being said we get the idea from the images that she was in league with him and that the whole scheme was to fuel her heroine addiction.
The dealer slowly walks her away and leads her to a room that she has clearly lived in for some time, as he chains her to the wall she has no reaction, we hear him talking to her but all we hear is him softly say, “sorry but you too dangerous to me”, she remains stony faced as if not hearing him. As he closes the door he withdraws a grenade from his pocket, removes the pin and throws it into the room. The last shot of the film we see the dealer walking away in slow motion as the room explodes behind him.

The Death of Tez Scene.
Scene opens.
Tez is walking up a long cobbled drive toward a small but rich looking house. He knocks at the door and a small window is opened. A gorilla sized man is looking back at him. The window closes and the door is opened. He enters and is just about to set foot in when he is stopped and it is indicated he should remove his shoes. He does so. He is lead down a long dark corridor to a room at the end. He knocks and enters. The room is lit by a single desk lamp. We can see a large wooden desk, neatly ordered with papers a computer and a few pens. In the corner nearest the door we see a large pot plant intended for decoration. Along the wall are some very expensive looking paintings. We can hear Mozart drifting quietly in the background. In the corner to the left movement can be seen but the light does not permit the audience to see who is there.
Behind the desk the dealer is sat dressed in a crisp expensive suit. He beckons Tez in. He walks forward and throws the money at him without word. A thug walks forward and takes the money. The money is put through a counter. Tez’s face is blank and hollow we can hear a dull noise in the background blocking out sound.
Dealer: I am sorry for the circumstances in which this arose, but you understand don’t you? After all it’s just business.” He smiles.
Tez just looks blankly back.
The thug walks up to the dealer and whispers to him. The dealer suddenly looks infuriated.
Dealer “I thought we had an understanding, you were to bring the rest of the money or die.”
Tez is stood crying out pleading saying that all the money was there before.
Dealer: (shouting) “I have shown you infinite patients, and this is how you repay me? I gave you an extra four days because I liked you and you dare to come here with less than asked for?” he nods toward the corner.
An arm lifts slowly from the shadow, the camera flashes to Tez’s face, it then flashes to the thug that counted the money, a flash and a black and white image appears of the police officer that arrested him, it is the same man. The camera flashes back to Tez.
Tez (shouting): “You set me up.”
Dealer points to corner.
Tez whirls round and we see his face, looking on from the gunman’s point of view. Tez looks stunned.
Cut to the dealer, closer up on lips.
Dealer: “Kill him” (slowed slightly during edit.)
Tez: (tears in eye’s) “Why?”
The gun is fired. The gunman slowly walks out from the shadows to reveal the presumed dead Debby, hollow faced and crying.
Debby: “I’m sorry”
Flashback.
Debby is meeting with the dealer in the same room, they are sat making plans and discussing things unheard by the audience. On the table we see drawn plans for the blunder and they are pointing to parts and talking.
Present
We see the dealer walk forward and whisper calmly to her, all the while he is attaching a belt to her arm and injecting for her. He slowly walks her back down the corridor to a set of steps leading down. He takes her into her room and chains her to the wall.
Dealer: “I am sorry my dear, but you are far too dangerous, well it’s been fun, see you around” (smiles slightly)
Debby remains silent and unmoved. The dealer is stood at the door; he looks through and removes a pin from a grenade before throwing it into room. He walks away, the room explodes, slow motioned walking during the explosion.
