To Ms. Borgonia:
303 Productions strives to provide the public with films based off of literary masterpieces. Although these classic works may not pique the interest of the common man, we seek to create exciting films that will draw their attention. Not only do our drama- and action-packed films attract younger audiences, but they also gain the attention of those who have an inclination toward prominent literary pieces. In the past, we have taken classics such as Beowulf and applied our modern interpretations to their traditional stories. Beowulf has received universal acclaim and has been deemed as "one of the greatest 21st century modern interpretations of classic British literature" by Rotten Potatoes. Since we have so much experience in producing incredible modern interpretations, we have chosen to recreate another literary classic: John Milton's Paradise Lost.
Our choice of Milton's epic was influenced by the striking allegories in the original text itself. Milton wrote the piece to criticize King Charles I's tyrannical reign. Milton's strong anti- monarchism makes itself known when he illustrates allegories between the Father figure and Charles I. Our interpretation of Paradise Lost is based on gangsters residing in a Bronx neighborhood. The Father figure's parallel is the powerful and demanding Godfather, with the rest of the characters revolving around his mob, the Benegettas, and his rival mob, the Cadutos. In Milton's epic poem, Adam and Eve work to tend the Garden of Eden; our interpretation of this is that they sell cocaine for the mob on Garden Road and Eden Street. Their sin in the epic is betraying the Father figure by eating from the forbidden Tree of Knowledge; in our film, their wrongdoing is betraying the Godfather by selling PCP, the narcotic marketed by the Cadutos and the competition to the Benegettas cocaine. We chose to adapt the epic into a mob film because of the parallels that can be made between the monarchy of a nation and the monarchy of an Italian mob. The vision for our film will be an interesting take on a classic that will enable our target audience to gain a deeper insight into Milton's literary masterpiece.
We are confident that the concept of our film will strike the attention of the average as well as the more elevated moviegoer because of its captivating and noteworthy storyline, abundance of symbolism, ideal locations, experienced crew, and exceptional cast. The incorporation of themes such as loyalty, disobedience, brotherhood, risk, and supremacy in addition to elements of conflict, drama, humor, action, and suspense coordinate together to produce a multilayered plot that will satisfy fans of nearly every genre.
