Abstract

Modern American film holds steadfast to its age old archetypes and stories, often portraying idealized and glorified relationships based on love. A love that means everything, is worth sacrificing for, and only comes about once in a lifetime. It’s shown as patient caresses and lustful kisses, as beautiful light that can illuminate a person’s life. In reality, that type of relationship is destructive and harmful and there are no Hollywood lights to chase away the darkness it creates. This screenplay delves into a supernatural love story that explores the dark side of true love and ultimate dedication. The pre-production work show how the story is laid out and the process from taking it from a script to a film.
