Amended screenplay

Black screen
(Typewrite Effect)
London
9:00am
12th May 2012

London Southbank, Daylight, London eye fully active

London city shown from various places

Shabby character, ragged clothing.
Clearly a tramp.
Character across the road behind moving crowd.

ANONYMOUS CHARACTER (NARRATIVE VOICE)
“How's a guy like me meant to make a living around here?
It's every man for himself and only the lucky ones have a chance of getting anywhere in life.
Nowadays you can go from being a nobody, to being feared by everybody.
Me? I'm the kinda guy that had a chance.”

Black screen
(Typewrite Effect)
London
9:00am
12th June 2012

London city, morning, broad daylight

Neatly presented character.
Wearing a suit with slicked hair holding a suitcase.

ANONYMOUS CHARACTER (NARRATIVE VOICE)
And him? He's the kinda guy that took that chance.
It's not for me to judge but it look like he's a damn sight better off than me.
To get rich, and make it big, you've got to want it.
The people you know determine who you'll be.
Cos' this is a tale of Rags to Riches and how a guy like me made it in a day.

We have changed the date, because we have chosen to make the film be about a man making it in a month not a day, and also, we have noticed that our screenplay looks like it's going to be a short sequence.
