Marty's 7th Draft (Script 7) 11/28/11

Final polish.

This revision clarifies hero's motivation for heading into adventure and spells out villain's evil intention at the midpoint. Otherwise, this is a polish draft and is being used as the "shooting script" for the new test movie!

Major overhaul, new set up, bigger conspiracy, etc.

This version is in response to Amazon Studios' notes. The general goals of this draft were to make the protagonist's motivation stronger and clearer throughout, and to make the villain a more formidable, central conspiracy figure.

This draft is in response to what I learned from our test movie and helpful critiques. I've streamlined the plot, re-tracked set ups/pay offs and character arcs, reworked dialogue and pacing, consummated the romance earlier, changed someone's name, and turned one man into a woman.

Synopsis

When Charlie Rocklin comes out of hiding to help recover a 17th century Spanish ship rumored to be stowing a large colonial-era bribe, he discovers a sunken U-boat that was never supposed to exist.

Ariel Ellis, a history professor who specializes in World War II escape strategies, informs Charlie that the submarine he found contains an enigmatic message that leads to the formula to alchemy, hidden years ago for its rightful owners; and they’re not the only ones who know about its existence.

As Charlie and Ariel combine their unique skill sets to unravel the clues left behind, they foil the power mongers who will do anything to commandeer the potential of unlimited wealth, and like alchemy, their highly charged romance turns from base to gold as they race to save the world.
