Remember Me Script Review

Published by Jeff Leins on February 5, 2010

Remember MeIn 2008, Will Fetters’ script “Memoirs” (now titled Remember Me) gained recognition from Hollywood types, landed on the Black List with six votes, prompted a sale, and will (on March 12) become his first feature credit.

Twilight: Eclipse’s Robert Pattinson is starring in yet another Summit Entertainment release and surrounded with the capable cast of Oscar-winner Chris Cooper, Academy Award nominee Lena Olin, beautiful “Lost” actress Emilie de Ravin, and the always slick Pierce Brosnan.  It’s not a flawless script, but it’s easy to see why they’re involved and how much promise Fetters shows as a writer.

Overall, the script takes a few predictable turns through family drama and its supporting characters could use more development, but the climax is what will have audiences thinking, discussing, and remembering this movie in March. Looking forward to it.

Review removed at the request of Summit Entertainment. The legalese claims it was “unauthorized distribution” even though I wasn’t offering the actual script or even quoting it. Apparently the infraction was due to an “extensive plot summary and detailed plot spoilers.” I guess I better be careful when writing my review, then.

    Yeah Michael commits suicide and Tyler dies in the twin towers on 9/11. It still works, depends on the audience.

    Jeff,

    That was my understanding too.. from someone who saw an early screening... which I agree really would hurt the story and I hope they changed it back... that aspect makes the ending!
  • they changed Michael's death to a suicide.
  • Jeff Leins
    I hope not. That's a poor decision.
