Does this sound interesting/openable or too similar to a Christmas carol?
On the eve of her son’s wedding, a bitter, regretful taxi driver must visit her past, present and future to prevent her son from making the same mistakes she did.
Where screenwriters learn the form and logline their screen ideas.
On the eve of her son’s wedding, a bitter, regretful taxi driver must visit her past, present and future to prevent her son from making the same mistakes she did.
I see no problem with being like Dickens (would that I could be!), but I would modify the phrasing:
On the eve of her son's wedding, a regretful, embittered taxi driver must visit her own past, present and future to help?him avoid repeating?her mistakes.

It does seem a bit similar to a Christmas Carol, but having a unique twist on a familiar concept is usually the Goldilocks zone of getting picked up by a producer.
I love films like this. And I think that the link to a Christmas Carol is a fun one.
