Film Idea/Proposal

When Olly was a young boy, he lived next door to a girl the same age as him, Amanda. The two became childhood friends from a young age and were almost like best friends. One day however, a 13 year old Olly discovers that Amanda is leaving town with her parents as her father has a new job elsewhere. Olly finds this quite hard to accept as Amanda is his best friend and the two have known each other for so long. However, as Olly tries to adapt to a life without his best friend, he realises that he actually had a growing crush on her.

As the weeks pass and turn to months and the months turn to years, fast forward to the present day and a 20 year old Olly is living the high life; he has a well paid job, amazing friends and has just moved in to his brand new flat. One day however, a blast from the past turns up and Amanda appears at his door asking to see her friend who lives with Olly. Unknown that this girl is actually his childhood friend, he invites her inside where she explains to Olly a bit about her friend. After talking for a while, the two begin talking about their backgrounds and their childhood, where they both discover they had a best friend of the opposite sex called Olly and Amanda. The two cannot believe that they've bumped in to each other after all this time and agree to go for a coffee one day. They soon swap numbers and low and behold, Olly finds that he once again is becoming attracted to Amanda just like he was all those years ago. As the couple begin to hang out together, their relationship grows and Amanda too, finds that she is falling in love with Olly. 

As the couple finally begin to realise their feelings for each other, Amanda is involved in a car accident and is rushed to hospital. Olly goes and visits her where the doctors explain that Amanda is making a speedy recovery which everyone is relieved to hear. However, suddenly out of the blue Amanda passes away and Olly is left truly heartbroken at the fact he has lost his childhood friend/the love of his life. But what makes it even more heartbreaking is that when Olly thought he had lost Amanda the first time when they were children, he has lost her a second and final time and he knows that she won't ever appear in his life ever again.
