I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to submit a copy of my script for your consideration. A brief synopsis follows.

Title: CHICO'S LINE

Based on actual events, famed bookie and handicapper Chico (Burton L.) Krantz takes brilliant MIT drop-out, Gabe Mishikowksi, under his powerful wing and grooms him to become the next great "layer and player" on the Eastern seaboard.

Known as "The President" due to his multi-million dollar bookmaking empire and his reign over dozens of bookies, Chico gives Gabe the roller coaster thrill ride of his life.

But the thrills turn deadly serious when Chico and Gabe learn that Mackey, the head of Boston's notorious Irish mob, has become an FBI informant. Although Chico encourages Gabe to save himself, even at Chico's expense, we learn that this father-surrogate son pair have schemed to turn the tables and ratted out both the Feds and the Irish.

Chico makes his great escape to Antigua, and Gabe fulfills his promise to Chico and finishes MIT.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,


Your name
