Hiya, I'm brand new here, but I hang out on other boards around town. Happened upon this one while I had my wet suit on.
My agent tells me that I should take chances with my scripts and pitch to as many people as I can get an ear for, so if you wanna lend me your ear, then the pitch follows.
"Prankster" : Action/Thriller
Angelo is an artist who creates murder in the name of art. By doing so he strives to reveal to society how art work, as it exists in mass media, creates human suffering. He is also the Prankster, a multiple felon positioning evidence from the murders in situations which are emabarassing for the police and seem to lead nowhere.
Nick and Nelly Defido pursue and they pursue with the heart of unseasoned detectives, still high on their job description. They learn at the hand of Angelo that murder is best left out of their marriage and their emotions, a fitting analogy to the countless people who everyday enhance their tolerance for violence via television, video games and film.
Angelo's masterwork is complete when he is acquited for the murders because he has successfully positioned the evidence in the pranks, and therefore made it circumstancial by law. Angelo has made the killings into a Prank. A fitting analogy to the claim of "coincidence" which the creators of mass media use to prevent society from making their products into villains.
To complete Nick and Nelly's arc and the story's theme, the thrilling third act to "Prankster" places Nick and Nelly themselves at the mercy of Angelo, who is attempting to create a work of art from our two heros.
How do they find their way out of this...
Find some actors and some funding for the film and I'll let you know.
Thanks for reading.
I look forward to any comments you could provide.
