Fragmented narrative
- 1. LAYOUT OF MY FRAGMENTED NARRATIVE Jakir Hussain
- 2. Flashback The Flashback will be in black and white because Schindler’s List (Spielberg: 1993) is like a memorial of Oscar Schindler and the Holocaust, its set in the past and is in black and white for the majority of the film, a bit like an old photo/video from the 1940s. James’ red clothes will be visible like the girl in red in the film. Present The scenes which take place in the present, will be in colour which helps differentiate between the two time frames. 1. The night before when he was at a club with a potential love interest, Hershel. 2. They will go to Hershel’s house after clubbing together to have sex (Off screen). 3. The morning after, James leaves Hershel's home with Hershel standing in the doorway. They kiss (not actually, I will make it look like they kiss). A group of homophobes see them. 4. The homophobes follow James as he leaves Hershel and launch an attack on James. 1. James will walk into his house in the morning, with his hood up and walk into the kitchen to retrieve a bottle of Jack Daniels, the living room door will be open with Belle sat watching TV. She looks at James as he walks by and up the stairs. 2. He walks into the bathroom, shuts the door and looks at his face wounds, taking a few sips from the bottle. 3. James is still in the bathroom, he begins to cry. He then looks in the cupboard and sees a bottle of painkillers. 4. James looks at the bottle for a couple of seconds, then puts a couple of pills in his hand, puts them into his mouth and washes them down with the Jack Daniels. He repeats this a few times. 5. Belle walks into the bathroom to find James lying dead in the bathroom.
