Logline - 'bout time

"Consumed by work and money. He shows no involvement with his wife and family and lives his life lavishing them with money and gifts to fill his place. But as England suffers a finacial crisis he looses all he's worked for. Despsising lower classes all his life he must now live and work struggling as a member of the disenfranchised, trying to correct his wrongs."

Ok, so it's abit long but the logline can be shortend, for now this is our big picture. We believe this would be some sort of drama/romantic soppy type film, with some laughs along the way so not to be so heavy.

Inspired Film Opening:

After writing our logline it came to us that the story is similair to "The Pursuit Of Happyness" Dir. Gabriele Muccino 2006. Except the character starts poor and works his way to the top, our character is already there and looses it all. With lots of establishing shots of the city and many shots of the buildings and city landscape it's easy to tell that we have been influenced by this opening.
Here is the opening to the film which has inspired the style of our Film:
