Yes Bit obvious this one, but hey...
A daytime scene of a man in a garden mowing the lawn. He is whistling and appears of a cheerful demeanor. The scene fades out.
The same scene fades back in. It is later in the day (we can tell by the light) the man is still going about his duties and is weeding the flower bed. He stands and appears to have some mild back ache. We fade out again.
We fade back to the same garden scene, the light is failing, it is clearly dusk. The man is cutting the hedgerow with garden shears. He is somewhat exhausted and mops his brow with the back of his sleeve. We fade out.
We fade in to the same scene in almost total darkness but for the moonlight. An owl hoots. We hear the clip clip clip of the shears before a loud exclamation of ‘oh fuck this for a laugh' breaks the night air and we hear the thud of shears hitting the ground.
A title appears - ‘the Constant Gardener'
Hilarity commences, perhaps on a global scale.
A toilet flushes. I get my coat.
