Age, Sex, Location

GENRES: Comedy

Set in the nineties:  An innocent chat on the internet and a confusion of identities leads to baseball bats, ice picks, revolvers and rifles. What do waitresses Carol and Leanne know about assassination? Nothing. But if they don’t make a hit in the next seven days, they become the target of a very professional hitman.

 

THELMA AND LOUISE meets LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS


WORD IS OUT

GENRES: Romance, Comedy

Jacob is a likeably sleazy writer of pulp fiction. He models the female character (The Blonde) in his novel on his ideal woman. She is beautiful, sexy, sophisticated and streetwise - in the style of Lauren Bacall.

Jacob's girlfriend, Franny, designs his male character (Bron) - he's everything she wants in a man. Rugged, masculine, irresistible - in the style of Humphrey Bogart.

Via a freak accident, the two characters come to life - Bron and The Blonde step out of fantasyland into mundane reality.

And wreck Jacob's and Franny's lives.

What chance has a real warts-and-all relationship against the attractions of the perfect mate?



CYCLONE

GENRES: Family

Stevie is fifteen years old and well on the way to becoming a hardened criminal; Dave is a cop, natural enemy of Stevie; Susie is Dave’s two-year-old daughter who is kidnapped during a cyclone. The last thing a teenage boy needs is a baby. But it falls to Stevie to save the baby – without knowing who she is and for totally unselfish motives – and thus to save Dave and his family from total disintegration.(Quarter finalist, TSL Free Screenplay Contest)
