Fool Me Twice

The Plot

The Film opens with two, young, Caucasian males walking through a woodland area. As the film progresses and the type of shots differ, it suggests they are being followed. The deranged tracker is eventually made visible wielding a combination spanner to reinforce the sense of realism in the clip, also teamed with a shot-reverse-shot sepia screen to highlight his point of view. Nevertheless the follower tracks one of the protagonists and an extreme close up shot show's the antagonist striking him. The story follows that of a generic thriller film opening with the tracker in pursuit of the only surviving protagonist. This scene is then interrupted with the end credits of the short film clip. Given a big budget and a longer time period, the film would have followed on as so... Anaphora would be a predominant theme throughout the film 'Fool Me Twice'. After the short two minute opening, the movie would flash back three years earlier where both the antagonist and protagonists where childhood friends. As the story unfolds it becomes clear that Gordon (the smaller protagonist with the black leather jacket) had taken a turn for the worse. With his father suddenly coming into a large sum of money  a vicious greed over took his once innocent mind. Unknowingly to Gordon his father was a wanted drug lord. Gordon began stealing small amounts of his fathers money day by day assuming he wouldn't notice. Nine months swiftly passed and the stolen blood money soon accumulated. It came to Gordon's father's attention of the missing money and he was outraged. Threatening him with his own life Gordon panicked and threw the blame onto the innocent orphan Solomon (the antagonist). Jamie by-standing this evil was as much to blame as Gordon. His father and his clan tracked down Solomon and took the law in to their own hands banishing him to a deserted prison in Mozambique where he was given scarce food and water and also tortured. After two years of this punishment Solomon became immune to the pain and was able to survive off the little supplements that he was given. One of night guards fell asleep and Solomon saw this as an opportunity to gain vengeance. Stripping him of his uniform and weapons, Solomon's disguise was sufficient enough for him to pass off as a guard and aboard ship back to the United Kingdom. Arriving back in his hometown Burnley, he gains background knowledge on his once best freinds and pursues them through their daily routine making them live in fear. The story then reverts back to the original two minute clip and follows on from there.
