More a collection of ideas, not sure if worth trying to something coherent with it
EXT – LARGE BUILDING – DAY.
SIGN OUTSIDE READS "THE WARRIOR RETIREMENT HOME"
CUT TO:
INT – LOUNGE
AN ELDERLY ORIENTAL MAN WITH A MING MOUSTACHE IS SITTING ON A CHAIR, SEEMINGLY ASLEEP. THE ANNOYING BUZZING OF A FLY BREAKS THE SILENCE.
SUDDENLY, AND WITHOUT OPENING HIS EYES, HE A "HELPING HAND"/GRASPING DEVICE IS THRUST INTO THE AIR. THE BUZZING IS CUT OFF ABRUPTLY.
THE CAMERA PANS TO THE WINDOW. IN THE GROUNDS OUTSIDE TWO GENTS CAN BE SEEN STICK FIGHTING WITH WALKING STICKS.
THE CAMERA MOVES ROUND TO THE CAR PARK, WHERE A YOUNG FAMILY ARE STANDING BY THEIR CAR. THE YOUNGEST CHILD IS CLEANING THE BONNET. GRANDPA STANDS BY LEANING ON HIS ZIMMER FRAME, WATCHING INTENTLY.
GRANDPA:
Wash on…Wash off…Good.
WE MOVE PAST THIS THROUGH A WINDOW INTO A ROOM, WHERE A MAN DRESSED IN A GLADIATOR'S TUNIC IS IN BED, HIS FAMILY SIT BY HIM.
MAN: (TO HIS GRANDKIDS, IN A CREAKY VOICE)
And then I said, I said: "My name is Maximis Decimus Meridius, young man, and you don't talk to me like that…" I'm thirsty, where's my tea?
THE CAMERA MOVES BACK INTO THE CORRIDOR. A NURSE IS WHEELING A TROLLEY OF TEA AND CAKES. SUDDENLY SHE TRIPS AND DISAPPEARS FROM VIEW. A SILVER-HAIRED OLD MAN DRESSED IN BLACK EMERGES FROM THE SHADOWS AND COMMANDEERS THE TROLLEY INTO HIS ROOM.
is warriors a bit of an old fashioned term though. Would it be special forces or something like that?
