A man found dead in a well had been tied up and his body left there for about two years, police have said.
This would make a great film because it includes themes of death, violence. This crime has been set in Warlingham which is in a countryside, landscape area. this would not work in a typical BSR film because it would usually be set in a gritty, urban street. I think setting a crime like this in an urban street area will emphasise the reality and believability of the film. The protagonist could be the criminal who killed this victim or we could twist the plot and make the protagonist the person who has been killed. A storyline could include the person killed could be a drug dealer and might of killed someone due to the drugs that they sold. So the family of the drug abused guy go and hunt down the main guy. he attempts to escape but ends up being killed.

Joanna Dennehy, 30, also pleads guilty at Old Bailey to attempted murders of two more men.

This would also make a great BSR film because it includes themes of death, violence, rebellion. I think that this would make a good film because it is a woman who has committed the crime which is not that frequent so she is subverting the generic stereotype of women. I would like to include a character like this violent woman in my production. This could be set in a gritty urban area because crimes like this do happen frequently in them areas however it's rare that a women has committed such a violent crime. The protagonist could be a teen girl being abused by her violent mum. The storyline could be about the girl living her life but viewing her struggles through her violent abusive mother who takes drugs and has just been released from jail.

Tony Abrahams, 47, suffered serious injuries after he confronted intruders at his home in the early hours of Saturday.

This crime news will also make a great BSR film. This includes themes of violence, corruption of youth and rebellion. I think that this this would make a good film because the fact the such a young boy has committed the crime emphasises the struggle of how bad their life is. The storyline of the film could be of the boy showing his struggles of his life with abusive parent and gang life. The gang tells him to commit comes that he does not want to but ends up getting caught when trying to rob a house.
