Pat Jasin’s villain has a great plan. What I learned is you have to have a backstory first.
What is the end goal? To maintain her luxury lifestyle and keep her drug selling past hidden. A jockey is her illegitimate son; kill him. To kill her husband and take over the racehorse business. To payoff the drug dealer selling her heroin.
How can the villain accomplish that in a devious way? Seduce the racehorse barn manager to help her destroy some racehorses for the insurance. To enlist the racehorse veterinary to give drugs to her husband’s horses to win. To drug a horse that her illegitimate son now a jockey, is riding. Payoff the racetrack owners to look the other way.
How can they cover it up? Blackmail the racetrack veterinarian and track owners. Have an alibi when her husband is killed.
Sequence it to make it intriguing. Longshot horse wins the Kentucky Derby. Horse is disqualified. Horse mysteriously dies. Owner employs a young jockey to train his horses. Barn assistant, who can read horses’ minds, befriends the new jockey. Jockey has no parents; both died. Jockey see villain doing drugs. Villain over hears jockey telling barn assistant. Jockey is training a horse and falls off- seriously hurt. Barn assistant loses brakes on her car going to the hospital. Villain drugs her husband. Villain kills jockey with drugs in hospital. Villain confronts husband; he drops dead. Villain and barn manager/lover move body.Drug dealer confronts villain for money. Villain sets barn on fire for insurance. Barn assistant saves horses. Police arrest villain.

Pat Jasin SOTL. What I learned from this movie was villains can be likable but murderers, characters can appear as nice, but are cruel. Heroine- Clarice wants to solve the murders and find Buffalo Bill, but has to reveal her hidden secrets to Hannibal to get his help. The prison guy Chilton is a devious opportunist, a mean guy, and deserving of Hannibal suggesting at the end that he will eat him. Clarice knows Hannibal is a murderer, but deep down respects his talents. She feels Hannibal is attracted to her and plays on this to get more info. Buffalo Bill is all psycho and there is no sympathy for his character, except for the fact that he has and loves the little poodle. The love for this little dog, shows that Buffalo Bill does care about something. I learned that using something like this, can make a murderer more “human”. The ending scenes were great with the same ringing the door bells and then no one there and Clarice meeting Buffalo Bill and recognizing the moths. What I learned was that heroes and villains have to appear human by adding something like the little poodle, or Hannibal’s love of opera. It reminds me of The Godfather movie, where Marlon Brando, a mafia head, takes murder requests while stroking a cat. SOTL was a movie that I was glad Hannibal escaped, but how he did it was terrifying. Plotting scenes is important.

Pat Jasin Stacking Suspense
What I learned from this assignment was that every scene has to contribute to the ending. Little clues, dialogue, actions of the characters all have to contribute to the whole experience. The ending leaves you the viewer wondering will she kill him? And, is she the killer?
