A
looking girl in her late twenties circulates quietly among the tables picking up books and putting them on her cart. Everything seems completely normal and peaceful.
POV
A single eerie musical note signals the presence of something strange looking down on the Librarian from a vantage point high above the room. It follows the Librarian as she pushes her cart around the corner.
INT. WORK AREA
Great Raid Script
Inspired by true events.
1941 the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.
The U.S fleet was crippled.
Ten hours later across the Pacific
they attacked the Philippines
clearing the way for an overwhelming
occupation of the islands.
U.S. forces, including 10,000 Americans
and 60,000 Filipinos
pulled back to the Bataan peninsula.
Without the NAVY to rescue them,
with their backs to the
sea,
chosen ground...
...to settle for good and all...
...who holds sway, over the Five Points.
Us Natives, born rightwise to this fine land....
...or the foreign hordes defiling it!
Under the ancient laws of combat I accept the challenge of the so called Natives.
You plague our people at every turn!
But from this day out, you shall plague us no more!
Let it be known, that the hand that tries to strik
churches burnt to the ground,
dogs sicced on kids...
youve seen Malcolm X and JFK killed.
They shut up Muhammad Ali
and Richard Pryor.
They gave Magic Johnson AIDS,
turned Michael Jackson white.
Do you really think these people
give a damn about you?
We interrupt the Jay-Z song
to bring you this special bulletin.

Good morning. Could you tell me
where Id find Saint Dominics Church?

OMALLEY:

It runs down the road, doesnt it?
Boom! Whoosh! Nyyyaoum!
Faster than the fucking taxis!
Of which there are five.
(Laughter, cheering and applause)

Youre a no-taxi city, arent you?
Five taxis, all going,
"I got people in."
Hours. Nyyyaaaoum, nyaaoum, nyaoum.
Nyaowww, nyaowww, rrrowwww.
Then when you get in,
they dont know where
late 1950s. Kenny drinks coffee, ties
a tie, rifles through a briefcase at the kitchen table. The
horde of kids, ages 2-14, breakfast on an array of period
food. Kenny grills the kids while he goes over papers.
KENNY
Secretary of Defense...
KEVIN

KENNY

EMMA
And how is my sister? Is your brother giving her the respect we Woodhouse
ladies deserve?
MR WOODHOUSE
Poor Isabella. She was the first to leave me. No doubt that is where Miss
Taylor got the notion to go.
MR KNIGHTLEY
Dont be too hard on Miss Taylor. It must be easier for her to have only
one to please than two.
EMMA
Especially when one of us is such a troublesome creature.
MR WOODHO

When I was his age, I was

Besides, you will be
in charge of a regiment.
Quiet!

Jack will never get married.
Hes too much of a sold
