“Gone girl”
Screenplay by:
Sofia Nisco
Giulia Aarsman
Jasmine Jackson
Luke Henry
Based on a young girl who gets kidnapped by a couple in the
cold morning of october 11th 2020.
First draft:
March 20, 2020
Characters:
● Luke - kidnapper 1
● Sofia - kidnapper 2
● Jasmine - Young girl (main character)
● Giulia - Jasmine’s mother
The scene begins with Luke and Sofia getting ready to commence
the kidnap by putting on their ski masks (medium shot from
behind). Then they start driving the car (medium shot from in
front). Opera music plays in the background and then gradually
softens when they start their dialogue, which they turn off
from the radio. The lighting is chiaroscuro-(harsh lighting on
side of face as they look at eachother)
Slowly zoom in to Lukes face
Luke:
“Are you ready babe?”
(Pan movement)to show sofia laughing - nodding and evil laugh
Car moves under a street lamp, lighting from above shines on
their face as they slip on their skii mask.
Jasmine is walking towards her home (long shot as she walks).
When the camera introduces her identity (medium shot showing
her listening to music through headphones).
Luke and Sofia get out of the car and start walking until they
find Jasmine. When they do they start following her (Medium
shot of them from behind and jasmine in the middle of the
frame - tracking shot)
As the couple gets closer to Jasmine they surprise her on the
spot (close up of them grabbing her from behind). (Handheld
camera shots) to create stress of the couple dragging Jasmine
into the boot of their car.
Jasmine:
“AHHHHHHH!”
Jasmine starts hysterically crying. As the couple throw her in
the boot, Jasmine throws her house keys on the floor, which
has a significant bear (close up to show that it has meaning).
Jasmine:
“Get off me!”
“Help!”
(Flash back) Giulia sitting on the sofa watching TV and
realises it is getting late because Jasmine still hasn't
turned up so she starts calling her (jumps to a close up of
the phone screen saying Mum calling - L cut from mum scene to
jasmine in the back unable to pick up the phone). Giulia
starts panicking and crying.
(Long shot of the garage corridor) establishing where Jasmine
will be stuck and then when the couple and jasmine start going
towards where she will be imprisoned (tracking and medium
shot). (Flash back and long shot) of Giulia walking on the
street (close up of her face) realising that she found
Jasmine’s keys on the floor (close up of Giulia picking them
up).
Scene ends with Jasmine tied up on a chair (medium shot which
gradually pushes back into a long shot).
