Goodbye's and Hello's

This is the story of A teenage boy is about to profess his undying love for the girl he's loved even before he was suppose to love them. But one small problem. She moves away to become an actress, and in the course. She becomes one of the most famous actresses in the world due to a series of movies.

But fate has a funny sense of humor. 10 years later she is back in town to film her new movie. And he has a second chance at telling her what he didn't get to say the
first time over 10 years ago. But there is only one thing standing in his way of a fairytale storybook ending. Her British Rock Star douchebag boyfriend Anthony John.

It's also sorta a what if scenario if you lived next door to a girl you loved all your life. And the flash forward so many years later. To see she's become one of the most famous actresses in the world. And you had a second chance at telling her how you felt over the years.

I've gotten two great reviews for this so far. Saying its by far my sweetest and touching script yet to date. And that's coming from someone who loved my other script Life As Liz. And they loved that one. So shows you that I'm doing something right here with this one.

It shows you the feelings that you could have for someone. and all it takes is that one special day or night to bring back all those feelings you had for them many years ago.

Lost in Paradise

This is Almost sorta like a female version of Wedding Crashers. But something different yet at the same time.

The two main female characters Al and Eliza are crude , but not to the point where they're undateable. Women are often like men, where they have difficulty with commitment in relationships, and that should be displayed in a film like that. It's the perfect flipside to how weddings are portrayed by men.

An aspect could be where one of the girls has slept with a crazy amount of guys, but feels she's done too much damage as a single woman to ever be considered "wifey material" by a great man, who winds up being "the one." So men just see her as a possible one night. A pre show before the main event you could say.

It'll be crude and expletive. But one of the two main characters is more out there than the other to differentiate the two. As far as reasons go, maybe one of them is basically a girl who likes commitment free no strings attached sex.  And can never commit to one person for more than a night or a week, while the other only had one steady boyfriend for over 10 years, but he cheated on her, so her heart was broken harshly, never to trust men again other than the occasional one night stand. Because all she's ever dated were jerks before.

Hawaii is used as part of the plot. Like so many people go there for weddings and the girls pick up on the guys as potential one night stands. Because they know the guys won't be around long. People are always having weddings there. So they can have their pick of the litter.

Their jobs are wedding planners. So that's how they meet so many guys.

I've had one good review on this. They liked it, but didn't totally love it. So I need to look over some of the dialogue and tone it back a bit. Other than that I'm good so far on what I'm told from it. In the script it's mentioned a few times that Hawaii is like Paradise. So I guess it's only fitting then why its called Lost In Paradise. People get lost in their heads trying to escape to Paradise for a bit.
