Happy to share that my screenplay, BROKEN MEN, a noir caper set in 1970s New York City, made it to the finals for the 4th Feature Drama Screenwriting Contest
Jed Power "The lives of a quick-tempered detective, an unscrupulous defense attorney, and a ruthless drug kingpin, each desperate to keep a damning secret from coming out, intersect in a tale of corruption, betrayal, and sacrificial redemption."
Lindbergh E Hollingsworth In a nutshell: Broken Men is about three men on opposite sides of the law, each desperately trying to keep a damning secret from coming out. Set in the gritty underbelly of New York City in 1978, the story follows Detective Frank Newman, grappling with the death of his former partner, his own corrupt past, and a crumbling marriage after the tragic loss of his baby girl. Unbeknownst to Frank, his fate becomes entwined with that of Alan Glasser, a prominent but shady defense attorney involved in a taboo affair with his step-sister, and Vincent, a ruthless drug kingpin leading a secret life on the down-low – a life he's determined to keep hidden from his dangerous associates. As their paths collide, entangling them in a dangerous web of lies, betrayal, and violence, each man must face the consequences of their choices and confront the harrowing lengths they will go to to protect themselves and the ones they love.
