“The Doorman’s Sacrifice” Posted on Amazon Studios

Note 2022 September 5: I did submit, but later removed my script. I don’t believe the program is still open.

I finished my changes to The Doorman’s Sacrifice and uploaded it to Amazon Studios.

When I did a quick check through the script before I submitted it, it struck me that some readers might see the story as a political allegory. I have worked on this story since 2005 and never noticed that aspect of the script before. Maybe it resonates with recent political developments. I didn’t want to have a political thriller, so I tried to shift the script away from that interpretation.

As I read through of the script, I fixed some typos and removed references to events that I had cut out of the script earlier. I changed the last line of the script in line with my empty apple juice can motif. Today I decided that it went too far, so I switched it back.
