The Conductor
Feature Film (Drama / Mystery / Suspense)
Ned is an unhappy train conductor who is enamored by the allure of wealthy Westchester homes. In his off-time, he breaks into them, not to steal but to experience the amenities they offer. He’s also infatuated with a beautiful, sophisticated passenger, a woman that‘s out of his league. His bumbling best friend knows about his secret interests but Ned’s live-in girlfriend doesn’t have a clue.
THE CONDUCTOR is a film about longing for what one thinks is perfect, without realizing that these desired objects have flaws and prices.
The script was a Sundance Writer’s Lab finalist and was developed at the BVEW’s Screenwriters Career Lab.
Room for Doubt
Feature Film (Mystery / Suspense / Neo Noir)
In a wealthy, suburban home, Kelly, 32, a conventionally beautiful, pharmaceutical rep, is found dead next to an empty bottle of sleeping pills. Her husband, Nick, 35, a young doctor with outstanding Medicare fraud charges, organizes her funeral and notifies his childhood friend, JESSE. Immediately, Jesse hops on a plane from Brooklyn and when he arrives, learns more details - including the fact that Kelly was having an affair. He also learns that despite the
appearance of suicide, Nick is increasingly a suspect in her death.
Soon after, Nick disappears, leaving his older sister, GRACE, and Jesse, with the two families. With a desire to
understand the truth and perhaps prove Nick’s innocence, Jesse and Grace slip into the role of investigators. Spanning a few years and a few cities, they set out to find and help him. In the process, they meet some odd characters, develop romantic feelings, have some luck and above all else, remain persistent.
