Sypnosis for our OTS

For my practical, i'm going to work with Bianca, and we're going to do a opening title sequence to a sequel for the 1991 hit film 'Thelma and Louise.'
We want to answer everybody's question of what happened next?
We are going to borrow sylistic conventions from films such as 'Se7en' and the open title sequence from 'Casino Royale' and 'Artist' giving our opening sequence more of a neo noir feel to it.
Synopsis;
Our characters formally known as Thelma and Louise are giving under new identity's in England, living glamourus lives but still cautious and running from the law.

we want the OTS to provide an introduction to the plot, establish the enigma - why are they in London - who are they? something to hook the audience into the plot line

it is not neccessary to know Thelma and Louise to enjoy our film but those who do would be interested thus providing an opportuity for us to use borrowed interest.

So far, our first thought storyline for our OTS:

-A camera opens to two woman knocking back whiskey in a bar
-A door opens bell rings
-Everybody turns to the door
-See footsteps as they come in
-See feet as they sit at the bar next to our two main characters
-American male character says to bartender that he's looking for two women
-Thelma and Louise become cautious mentally preparing their background story
-Male character attempts to ask thelma and louise about the two female fugitives
-Thelma and louise decline any involvment with this man
-Shortly they both leave the bar, in to a black cab and frantically driving away
-Flash back to two years before
-Thelma and Louise stand up and brush themselves down
-Thelma asks 'where to now' and they set upon England.
