The pitch
Our film is a romantic comedy called the calendar, the BBFC classification is 12a, it allows familys to watch even if they are under the age of 12, this will help it appeal to a larger audience. It is about two people, Helen and Callum, who we first see when they’re about to sign their divorce papers. However, half way through doing so they question why their marriage has resulted in divorce, we see their relationship from when they first fell for one another and into the start of their marriage, from there we slowly see their relationship collapse right in front of them. After they reflect back it is clear to them that getting a divorce are a mistake as all in all they still love each other and want to put things back the way it was at the start.
Callum is very successful and rich man who has lived the life of luxury since the day he was. This is one of his main strengths along with being a determined and independent man, but unfortunately it is also one of his greatest weaknesses, he can be too materialistic at times and often looks down on people, even to those whom are close to him, and this unfortunately leads to his great tragic downfall. Whilst Helen is the average type of women who has lived a simple life, throughout her life she has been trying to find her one true love, but for reasons she can’t explain she has never found the one. Because of this she has never achieved anything. She soon realises this and gives up on love. Once she has given up she starts to strive in her work.
