OLD SOLDIERS - RADIO SCRIPT UPDATE #4
Thinking further regarding the story line. Now toying with the idea of perhaps turning it into a comedy crime caper.
Let's say: you have a trio of elderly senior war vets who are tired of having to live from hand-to-mouth. They live in rented rooms. Joe McKenna (main character) is continually pressed for rent from his obnoxious landlady. The other two experience similar problems.
Their meeting at the local pub/bar and reflecting upon their lives ends up with them touching upon the idea of robbing a liquor store or jewelry store...not sure what type of business, yet. Joe visits his son and grandchildren in anticipation of following through with the robbery and in case he ends up in jail, or worse.
Have to give it more thought...
