Film Opening - Our (rough) Idea

We have decided:

Our film is going to be from the male’s perspective: this is ironic and different as many RomComs tend to be from the females POV. This also makes our film opening stand out, and ‘quirky’ - fitting in with the brief description.

The main character writes a diary: Taking inspiration from films such as Bridget Jones Diary and Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging, and the popular TV series My Mad Fat Diary, our opening will show the male writing about previous relationships that he’s had no luck in. The film will be about the one relationship that seems unlikely to happen but is the one that works out the best for him. This is what his diary entries consist of, the plot/story.

The film will start at the end: Our opening will technically be the ‘ending’ of the film, where the main character is writing about what has happened. It’s like the diary is not an account of everything happening in the present, it’s more of what has happened in the past.
A montage of clips: The opening will show previous ‘dating’/ ‘girl’ experiences the character has had, this will be the comedy element.
