After brainstorming a few ideas on how to transform The Poor Boy in the Grave into a film noir style film, we decided against this fairytale. It is too difficult to change the different characters into the femme fatale, the detective, etc. and the storyline is really quite dark with not very much happening, so we decided to take another look at other fairytales we can do. This held us back a bit with time as most of the other groups have sorted out which fairytale they are doing and have started working on their plot for their film. However once we work out the fairytale we are doing, which will be next lesson, we should be able to get some rough ideas together quite quickly.
Our brainstorming for The Poor Boy in the Grave is:
- The 'poor boy' would be a female, rather than a male
- The foster mother is the femme fatale; her and the detective are lovers
- The detective kills the daughter (instead of suicide)
- The parents hired a hitman to kill their daughter (who is the bad detective)
- Was killed with poison and they planned to make it look like a suicide
- There is an investigation involving the bad detective and a good detective
- The film begins with an interview in the detective's office - the mother and father acting really upset about the murder
- The foster mother is the femme fatale; her and the detective are lovers
- The detective kills the daughter (instead of suicide)
- The parents hired a hitman to kill their daughter (who is the bad detective)
- Was killed with poison and they planned to make it look like a suicide
- There is an investigation involving the bad detective and a good detective
- The film begins with an interview in the detective's office - the mother and father acting really upset about the murder
