Revised Script

We had to amend out original script in order to adjust to the changes and developments we had made in the production of our film opening, such as casting. The casting of the character Olivia is evidence of a change we made, we changed Olivia into a male (Oliver) to be reflective of modern day society which features relationships between males and females. Although, we have altered the original script we believe the revised script still embodies the ideas and values founded in the original script of 'Planet Mary.
