Treatment

Title: 
Duration: 5 minutes
Genre: Romantic drama


BBFC Rating

Parental Guidance

General viewing, but some scenes may be unsuitable for young children

Unaccompanied children of any age may watch. A ‘PG’ film should not disturb a child aged around eight or older. However, parents are advised to consider whether the content may upset younger or more sensitive children.

Discrimination

Discriminatory language or behaviour is unlikely to be acceptable unless clearly disapproved of or in an educational or historical context.  Discrimination by a character with which children can readily identify is unlikely to be acceptable.

Drugs

References to illegal drugs or drug misuse must be innocuous or carry a suitable anti-drug message.

Horror

Frightening sequences should not be prolonged or intense. Fantasy settings may be a mitigating factor.

Imitable behaviour

No detail of potentially dangerous behaviour which young children are likely to copy. No glamorisation of realistic or easily accessible weapons.

Language

Mild bad language only.

Nudity

Natural nudity, with no sexual context.

Sex

Sexual activity may be implied, but should be discreet and infrequent. Mild sex references and innuendo only.

Theme

Where more serious issues are featured (for example, domestic violence) nothing in their treatment should condone unacceptable behaviour.

Violence

Moderate violence, without detail, may be allowed, if justified by its context (for example, history, comedy or fantasy).
Synopsis

James is walking towards the train station, listening to his ipod when he see's Sally, a girl that he is friends with and she is stood at his platform. She shyly smiles towards him. He smiles back because he is in love with her but he daren't tell her how he feels incase she doesn't feel the same way. In his mind we see that they are in love. We have snapshots and short snippets of them growing up together with sounds of wedding bells and children to demonstrate that they have started a family together however this is just his imagination. Then, it goes back to reality and he walks over to talk to her however, the conversation that they have is very awkward because all he can think about is that he loves her so he doesn't know what to say. Then, her train pulls up and she hints to him if he is going to get on with her. But he doesn't. She sits down and types a message on her phone to James saying 'I love you'.Then we cut to a flashback in Sally's mind of moments between them where she is hinting that she loves him but he is oblivious to her feelings. Once the train has begun to move, she sighs and deletes the text on her phone and looks up to see that James is sat opposite her. He takes the phone off her, puts it on the table and holds her hands. They smile at eachother to tell the audeince that they now know the truth that they are in love with the other.
