Synopsis/Details
This script is a parody of Dick Tracy style comics, updated/relocated to reflect the hipster (and sometimes absurdist) culture of Portland, OR. While satisfying, the film is open ended, leaving room for a sequel or multiple followups (franchise), and extensive merchandising opportunities. Portland Detective Trace Dickey spends his time battling the city's Rogues Gallery of colorful villains including his arch nemesis Flatnose Smith. Smith is tired of Dickey's interference and decides once and for all to put an end to the detective's heroic capers. Smith fashions a plan to capture the entire Portland professional soccer team and hold them for $8.75 billion ransom. Dickey, who is already exhausted from multiple fights with all the city's other villains, must devise a way to rescue the soccer team while not letting Flatnose get way with the ransom cash. About me: In addition to completing 13 screenplays (with 3 receiving a contract), I have written three novels (one for which I received a contract), and numerous short works (two with a contract).
