Story Idea's research 2

Supreme Court rules infavour of pre-nuptial agreement
A husband and wife are walking down the beach holding hands (this is a flashback all we can hear is the sound of the sea and laughter). They sit down and hold each other, as they star to kiss we hear 2 knocks from a judge’s hammer. As we hear the sounds of the knock the camera shakes and the previous image becomes blurred.
We then see a man in a court room shaking his head as it he is forcing the image out of his head. He then looks at a woman on the other side of the room. She smiles a cunning smile and he covers his face with his hands,
Next we hear music building up as we flash from the women in a rich house to the man in a council house. The music turns very childlike when we see a close-up of a little girl looking at a photo of the two older characters together. The girl is crying and we see a tear drop on the photo and we hear the impact.
She slowly steps on a chair in order to hang herself. We flash from this to the man and woman running shouting the girls name once. The music stops when they open a door.

UK aid worker's joy at release from captors in Somalia.
Frans Barnard's release was secured
by Somali clan leaders
A British security consultant kidnapped six days ago by gunmen in Somalia has described his release as "marvellous", Save the Children says.
I would make a film about a group of people in the army who set out to rescue this man. We will see them bond over time because right now they don't see the point of sending ten men to save one man. The man will be having flashbacks of his life during the film.


Opening sequence
Man on chair in dark room all tied up with men with guns around him. He will be filthy with low-key lighting, so we can't see his face. Tense music will be playing during this scene.
The tense music will turn soft (preferably classical) It will constantly flash back to people in his life  laughing and smiling with him or without him. All of a sudden a little girl will scream and say daddy and then the soft music will stop. It will then cut to the 10 man army fighting various people and leaving America. It will then cut back to the man this time we see his face. It goes pitch black and we hear a gun shot and see a light.
