BACKGROUND NOTES
(Updated September 2010)

Flat-Broke Films Ltd was registered at Companies House in October 2009.

 Our first short film “WATERS END” (2006) proved very popular selling over 2000 DVDs which encouraged us to seek out new film colleagues to develop and write feature film screenplays.

The list below shows our current projects in various stages of development. Some are original stories- others are adapted from real events.

CURRENT PROJECTS IN DEVELOPMENT

1. “A SAFE BET”: A heist/crime thriller with an IRA back – story set in the world of horse racing and gambling being co-developed by David Reynolds/Adrian Tyson & Johnny Griffiths. Our story is inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s classic thriller “The Killing”.
2. “LOUISA”: A romantic/adventure/drama screenplay based upon real events of the 1899 heroic lifeboat story set in Lynmouth & Porlock Bay (UK). The exciting story has a 116 page screenplay by William B Homewood (USA) with research by David Reynolds (UK). A film company from Australia has shown interest in the screenplay.
3. “HACK!”: The real life gruesome 1938 Gloucestershire “Torso Murder” which shocked the Nation. David Reynolds’s screenplay will uncover the events based on a reporter who worked for a local newspaper who may have been linked to the murders. “HACK!” will launch films based on real murders the “Cotswold Crimes” series.
4. “HEAT OF THE MOMENT”: Adrian Tyson & Nick Duffy/Stick Around Films have completed a 3 min prologue to go on YouTube to promote their short film.
5. “CAPTAIN JONES” and “THE WRECK OF THE FORREST HALL”. These two extensive projects are being co-developed by Stick Around Films and Flat-Broke Films. Both will be major seafaring dramas in the “Master and Commander” style. See www.stickaroundfilms.co.uk for more information on “CAPTAIN JONES”.
