I will be show casting a girl being kidnapped
which is the actual story of taken.

5. Why I chose Taken?
My final film idea is of kidnapping of a girl from the road when she is
back from a party, Taken 1’s suspense and thriller is the main reason
why I am referencing to it. The intense close up shots and long shots
taken in the movie inspire me to use these techniques in my film too.
This movie got an award of “ biggest surprise of the year” maybe by
this reference I can get that title too..
I refer to this movie even because of the background music selection
which actually creates so much of suspense that you really want to
know what will happen next.
