HURT

INT. PROFESSIONAL RADIO STUDIO - DAY
                                                            
The screen is black and the sound of a bird twirping is
heard for a short five seconds, the image then cuts into
view of a bird stood on a branch before flying away. The
ripples of a resevoir are viewed and heard, the morning is
calm and the sun is rising.

A man walks into a radio studio and adjusts his seat and
microphone. A man through the glass holding a folder and
counting down with fingers begins to speak through a mic on
the opposite side of the glass.
                                                            
                       JOHN
And your on in 5,4,3...
                                                            
                       RICHARD
      (smiling and
       cherpy)
Hello everyone, Im Richard Swaby
and this is your Sunday morning
show. What a beautiful winter
morning it is outside, the birds
are singing, the airs still, the
skies clear and the suns shining.
Makes a bit of a difference to
yesterdays weather, it was tipping
it down, almost flooding. Anyway
to kick it off here's a song from
a new band, there called ........
and the song is ......... Enjoy!
                                                            

2.

As Richard is speaking and as the song is played, potential
characters are shown turning on their radio's, a woman in a
car, a man having a shower, a man in the alpes with a hand
radio, a man sat in a church praying etc. Cut in between are
shots of nature such as birds singing, the sun rising, the
trees swaying in the breeze (images of tranquility).

Suddenly the song comes to a cut stop and a man is seen
stood in a resevoir up to his waist, fully clothed holding a
body wrapped in bin liners. He drops the body into the water
and cleans his hands of the blood. Turning around he walks
away, the audience unaware of the characters facial
appearance.

Cut to black.

screen)
                                                            
 
INT. MICHEALS HOUSE - DAY
                                                            
Subtitles: 24 hours prior
                                                            
(close up) an alarm clock switching from 8:59 AM to 9.00AM,
as it hits the hour a wake up message comes on, a mans arm
roots around the cabinet looking blindly for the alarm
clock, feeling around he grabs it and turns it off.

The man climbs out of bed in only his underwear leaving his
wife still in bed sleeping, he goes into the bathroom and
washes his face to wake himself up, Looking in the mirror he
feels his stubble and climbs into the shower. Clambering out
and drying himself he walks downstairs with a towel around
his waist and pours himself a bowl of cereal, he switches on
the news.

The report shows a dead body found in a forest with a bullet
wound to the head, believed to be connected to big time loan
shark Don Mackenteir, however there is no evidence to prove
this.

Micks hand begins to shake, putting the cereal down on the
table and switching the tv off with the remote, he looks at
a photo of his family left on the sideboard.

He walks upstairs past the bed and pulls some clothes out
of his wardrobe, he slips them on quickly and begins to
root around for a red shoe box he has hiden on the top
shelf. He opens it cautiously and in doubt, staring at the
gun in a daze for a few seconds he sticks it in the back of
his pants and puts his jacket on to cover the gun from

3.

sight. He places the shoe box on the top of the wardobe and
closes it.

Walking over to the bed he puts his hand on zoe's arm and
kisses her on the shoulder.

Waking up she turns over and looks at him smiling...
                                                            
                       ZOE
You were gonna leave without
saying goodbye?
                                                            
                       MICK
I was gonna leave without worrying
you.
                                                            
She puts her arms around the back of his neck and pulls him
down kissing him...
                                                            
                       ZOE
You take care of yourself and ill
see you tommorow.
                                                            
He pulls up from out of her arms and holds her hand...
                                                            
                       MICK
theres nothing to worry about, ill
see you tommorow.
                                                            
                       ZOE
Love you
                                                            
                       MICK
Love you too
                                                            
He kisses her on the forehead and walks out of the room on
his way picking up a pillow and throwing it at her.

                                                            
                       MICK
      (Smiling almost
       laughing)
Dont go back to sleep lazy

Zoe watches him walk out of the room smiling, as he leaves
her face turns to worry. Mick walks down the hall to Joshuas
bedroom and opens his door quietly, walking over to joshua
who's cover has slipped off, he pulls it back over him and
kisses him on the head.

Stroking his hair he smiles and walks out of his bedroom
taking one last look before he shuts the door.

Suddenly his mobile rings, he picks up...
                                                            
                       LEE
Hey im outside now
                                                            
                       MICK
Cheers Lee, ill be out in a minute
                                                            
He hangs up the phone and walks down stairs, opening the
door up to a dark rainy day he sees lee sitting in a car
outside his house waiting for him. He runs out closing the
door behind him and jumps in the passenger seat of the car.
                                                            
                       LEE

       breathes deeply)

Lee begins driving out of the avenue and away from micks
house. As he is driving mick pulls the gun from behind his
back (unknowingly to Lee) and pushes it down the side of his
seat. He turns on the radio as they drive off. The voice
comes on the radio...

Wait, so you rated your own script, gave the highest rating and acted like it wasn't yours?...That's kind of...odd. Anyways, the script is fine, a bit of grammar errors, but it needs something more to keep interest.

From Matthew Davies Date 11/21/2006 ****
I thought that this story was an excellent reflection upon previous time montaged stories such as meento or pulp fiction. The story is somewhat more dramatic and less action packed which makes it rather origional and a first for a story like this. However I feel your grammar needs a little improvement
