Narrative: The location of this moviewould be based in London 1981

they get into the buildingundetected the mission is get the hostages
without being seen. And if seen you mustkill soldier immediately and
if you see a soldier on his own you take him out quietly butif there’s
a bunch you mustinjurethem. Only kill if necessary. They find a few
hostages guarded by 1 soldier; the SAS take him quietly by putting
him to sleep and getting the hostages out. As the hostages are leaving

Character list: Private Thompson, Captain Russell, Sgt Johnson, and
Private Wayne’s. Bad guy boss: Makarov.
Stars for the movie: Jason Statham because he playsa tough
character who looks like he would be a SAS soldier.
Tom Hardy becausehe is a well-known Britishactor and is known for
action movies.
John Voyega because he is recently known for his breakout
performancein star wars.
Key scenes: the scene with them sneakinginto the hotel and trying
not to be seen and another key scene would bethe shoot out when a
hostage gets killed. Becausethey are the main pointsin the story
where everyonewould beglued to the screen.
Target Audience: any gender from 25-35 becausethese are the ages
that tend to enjoy war films and this is based on a truestory, which
would also interest these age groupsof people.
What makes it a UK film: the actors and the location which is London
and its also set in a true story which happened in the 1980sand the
SAS would makeit British since they are known asthe best British
task force.
BBFC: I think the film would be a 15 or 12A sincethere is violence
but it is not too graphic to be an 18.
Funding: This would comefrom the bbfc and the rich stock investors
who wantto makemore money. If they hear it’s a war film based on a
true story they will want to invest because those typesof movies
alwaysdo well. You need fundingnotonly to pay the cast and crew
but also to buy things you need on set and this is why fundingiskey.
Representation: I am representingthe movie as the British people
are good and savethe day and the terrorists are not the peopleyou
would wantto talk too, this is key to makeBritish the saviourssince
it is a British movie. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . .
