Film Noir Task - The Eye of The Stranger

This term in media we have been assigned a task where we are to film a film noir style film. Below is our idea for our film:

Our story will focus on a woman who is feeling as if she is being followed/stalked everywhere she goes and constantly watched by a stranger. She eventually starts to receive threatening and black mailing letters. So in an attempt to try and protect herself she goes to visit one of her friends, who happens to be a detective, and explains her situation and asks him to help her out. She thinks she is getting help from the detective but little does she know that he is actually the one who has been stalking her because he wants to kill her. When she is telling the detective about being stalked and all the harrasing letters she has received, they are all going to be filmed as if they are flashbacks. She tells the detective that she has found a small button outside her house, obviously missing from the strangers coat. As she explains that she doesn't own any coats with those types of buttons. When she eventually walks out of the detectives office to return home, she walks away and the camera will be filmed to show a shot of the detectives jacket. Which will be missing a button. Revealing that he has been the mysterious stranger the whole time.

Names of the characters:

  • Victoria Hastings
  • Detective Montgomery/Stranger
