    BACK WHEN I KNEW YOU presents with an excellent concept. The tone is reminiscent of an Alfred Hitchcock film or a Twilight Zone episode.

One can easily envision this as a film. While there are elements that can be further clarified‚ overall the script delivers a tense thriller. The script offers the core
