Today I met her face to face, and met another character in my screenplay.
Valentina is a 27 year old girl from Napoli. After a 7 year relationship and an engagement, her fiance called off the wedding. She's never been on a first date. Before Antonio was her boyfriend, he was her best friend. He ended their "story", so she decided to begin a new one. The only place she could imagine this new start was America. She thinks perfecting her English will help her find a job in wedding planning.
When asked why she choose Boston, she said because she loves small cities and it's close to New York. And she's always wanted to have breakfast at Tiffany's, just like Audrey. End scene.
Nice character! Can she have a more extreme job aspiration than wedding planner though? The characters in your screenplay will all have great charisma and interesting quirks. This character could be even greater if her aspirations were a bit more off the wall. Just a thought!
