Goodbye Love By Adam Davidson and Keith Burgin
Goodbye Love is a comedy, drama, romance, adventure script that follows our main protagonist, Tim as he embarks on the awkward journey toward finding true love. Goodbye Love is told in a nonlinear narrative. There are no major special effects. Our script can be made on a realistic budget.
We enter Tim’s life at a happy, successful time. Nice home, confidence, money, and best of all true love. Unfortunately, all will come to an end with the untimely purposeless death of his wife Monica who dies in a car crash. Her death brings Tim to Italy, their home away from home. The trip to Italy was supposed to be together. A time for Monica to visit her place of birth. A place she learned her craft of becoming an accomplished painter. The trip also posed a chance for Tim to rekindle his love for crime stories and finally try his hand at a novel. But Monica’s death has left Tim without purpose to continue his own life, an empty existence of guilt. Finding comfort in a bottle of alcohol. Tim slips and loses his balance, smacking his head on the corner of a table.
Entering Tim’s subconscious we intertwine his guilt for Monica’s death with his latest attempt at a crime story entitled A Plan Gone Wrong. This dream sequence focuses on a hit-man who enlists an old friend to accompany him as he makes his rounds after discovering his name on a hit-list penned by his boss. Upon awakening from his vivid dream, Tim comes across an unfinished painting Monica had started of an island where they met and fell in love. With a new day’s sun shining in through the window of his apartment in Italy, Tim feels a purpose and a will to live with his true love one more time. As the brush hits the canvas the story of his life unfolds.
Comedy ensues as we follow a younger Tim through awkward teenage blues. These inconvenient moments will shadow Tim throughout his youth leading to a surprise discovery of a failed first marriage. Meeting his first wife as he ventured into uncharted waters where he finally gave the whole writing thing a whirl. All this leads to a hilarious departure from civilization and onto an island where true love awaits.
Goodbye Love is packed with original storytelling and lighthearted comedy throughout. We feel it would reach a large audience of movie lovers.
