    For 10 years this man has been having accurate visions of events seven days into the future. Last night he saw his own murder at the hands of a woman he doesn't know.

    >> prior to the vision is up to you but normally no more than 10-15 pages

    In “The Minority Report”, the pre-cog vision that the protagonist will commit a crime occurs about 1/4 of the way through the story (which maps to page 30 standard 120 page length measurement). IOW: it kicks off the 2nd Act. The first Act establishes the thematic issues on which the accuracy of the pre-cog’s vision about the protagonist pivots.

    Reminds me of the question asked in bootstrap-yourself-to-a-better-life seminars: if you KNEW with an absolute certainly the day of your death (10 years from today, 30 days, one week) , how would you live your life differently than you are right now?

    Reminds me of the question asked in bootstrap-yourself-to-a-better-life seminars: if you KNEW with an absolute certainly the day of your death (10 years from today, 30 days, one week) , how would you live your life differently than you are right now?

    Which is to suggest that if he believes he can’t prevent what he has pre-visioned, then the dramatic question would seem to be: how best to live the last 604,800 seconds of his life?

    I think it’s an interesting premise to explore and if you decide to explore it I hope you won’t cheat on the premise: no last second reprieve, no deus ex machina. He’s absolutely will die at the end of the movie.

    And if he tries to escape his destiny, like Oedipus, the harder he tries to make it not happen, the more he makes it certain and inevitable that it will happen.
