New-old film ideas (or is that Old-new?)

These are some ideas I had on my original page on facebook. I'm now adding them to the Film ideas page.

The Lost Script (admittedly needs a better name)

As young child Elizabeth was never allowed in her grandfather's attic. Why? What was he hiding? Skip ahead 12 years and as she helps her Grandfather pack to move she cant resist the opportunity to take a peek into this forbidden crevice of the old house. She is amazed when she opens the hatch to discover piles of papers and boxes with photos all over the walls. Picking the top sheet of one pile of paper she begins to read. It's a film script. Transfixed she sits there leafing through it until her grandfather calls her to go. Quickly she puts it back and rushes down the stairs but now she's hooked. Why did her grandfather never make the film? Why wont he speak about his past life? Can she produce the film from the lost script?
