REFLECTION OF EDEN
Outdoor Adventure and Human Drama By Rod Fisher, Clint Johnson and Zo Herriges-Whitfield -- 33 pages, 45 minutes Price: $60.00
A wealthy middle-aged stockbroker and his beautiful young second wife pick up Buzzer, a young hitchhiker, on their way to a mountain lake. A chance meeting with an Indian turns their sailboating weekend into a hunt for a cache of silver dollars. During a quarrel, Buzzer goes overboard and doesn't come back up. When the husband goes for help, Buzzer reappears and consumates a budding romance with the wife. And when they find the silver dollars, it really gets sticky. Like the snake in the Garden of Eden, Buzzer's intrusion into the couple's lives is disastrous, bringing out the worst in both—but he walks away unscathed.
PRODUCTION HINTS: This script was designed primarily for three people, a lake and a cabin sailboat like a Catalina 22. With good planning it could be shot in two or three weekends. It is suitable for video or film, and has meaty roles that will challenge the ability of cast and director. In addition to the sailboat, a camera boat is required for on-the-water shots.
