Working title: "Big Business Can Take It" or maybe
"CEOs can Take It"
It's the eve of another calamitous day on Wall Street, or just some
business building, and a few all night shifters and a CEO are all that populate
the place. Through a series of vignettes and narration, we're introduced
to these characters and eventually the CEO who's standing at the edge of the
building about to jump. But the other workers stop him and decide to take
the fall for him (committing suicide themselves) and help is on the way in the
form of "bailout bombers" who will drop crates of cash.
The story is nonlinear and we've already seen his body about to hit
the ground and flying through the air--foreshadowing his suicide. But
rather than him killing himself, which is what is expected, he's saved and the
CEO gets off well in the end. Ah the irony.
It's a dark comedy.
I've also considered turning it into a somber musical at the end
where each worker is independently singing the same song (sort of like in
Magnolia).
Most of it seems pretty doable, the only thing I wasn't sure of was
if we could get shots of bombers dropping crates of cash.
Length varies on each and can probably be adjusted if
necessary.
