original script idea

Once upon a time in London


Scene- Two unidentified characters are sitting on the boot of a car in what appears to be a car park.
Close up of a gun being held.
Greg-What the hell is this? I asked for a 9mm not a bloody cowboy gun!!!
Low angle shot looking up at the two characters.
Andy-Why don’t you get it yourself next time it’s not as though there is a large selection buying this sort of thing.
Mid shot
Greg-I mean Jesus Christ it looks like a cap gun!!!
Andy-Sorry boss
Greg-You have a lot to learn lad (slaps him playfully and puts the gun in his pocket)
Cuts to shot of a car driving, over the shoulder shot of two characters in the backseat of a car.
Car pulls in to the car park slowly; a character in the car mutters “Showtime”. Andy and Greg don’t react and sit casually with their arms folded.
Car stops and nothing happens suspenseful music starts.
Door opens slowly and a shot of a foot stepping down onto the floor
Two characters step out with a brief case and walk towards the characters on the boot of the car that also walks towards them they meet in the middle. Mid shot of all four characters facing off.
Greg-Good evening gentlemen and what time do we call this?
Ross-Traffic
Andy-yeah we had the same… (interrupted)
Jinesh-Cut the bull man you got the stuff.
Greg-Sure it’s in the boot
Andy-Have you got the money?
Jinesh-(clicks his fingers, Ross lifts the briefcase) all in 50 pound notes just as you asked.
Andy-close up of Andy looking intently on the money “wow”.
Ross-And your side of the deal
Greg-Certainly gentlemen walk this way
Leads them to the boot of the car and opens the boot a shot looking up out of the boot at Greg and Jinesh.
Jinesh-“Very” nice glances round and winks at Ross
Andy notices the wink and reaches for the gun in Greg’s pocket and pops a cap in Ross, Greg turns around abruptly with a shocked look on his face, looking at Andy who has angry eyes, he aims his gun at Jinesh and Greg Stops him.
Greg-What the hell are you doing?
Andy-He winked!!!
Jinesh-Jesus Christ what is your problem?
Greg-Oh crap we are in the crap now
Jinesh- Just let me go I won’t tell anyone I swear!
Greg takes the gun off Andy
Greg-Sorry mate can’t afford this little hiccup to get out
Long shot of Jinesh kneeling down and Greg standing over him a bang erupts and fades to black and title appears on the screen.
