Watch for elements of believability
I like the idea that you're working with. There's a lot of potential. I'll touch on one point as a note for you: developing a believable plot is important,keep your audience in it. Being shot so many times took me out of it. There's no way he would have survived it. Especially with the last shot thats pointed right at camera...head shot for sure. Instead of having your audience question the reality, make another choice. Hit him over the head with something. Hitchcock would have taken that route.
Attention to Details
You have an interesting plot here and one that has great potential. There's a lot at stake so what makes a show like this really work. As a writer, really workshop the dialogue so that every line subtly reveals the next point. You jump to the next conclusions very quickly. The coin is a very important prop so I would have suggested making it a "hero" prop. Putting a little more thought into and making it unique. Why is it a special coin, what does it look like, how is it different than others.
It is always about the money
I like the choice to do this in black and white. The visual effects of the gun was good. I also liked the fake blood at the end, that was a good touch to show he was dead for reals. The band aid not applied correctly and then falling off his face was very distracting and I don't was necessary as we saw him get shot. Overall this was well done and I can tell it took a lot of effort and preplanning. Good job.
Great Themes of Hitch
You have a great concept of greed and family feud, both of which would have be perfect themes for Hitchcock. That said, the way the director handled the violence was quite different than Hitchcock would have. With Hitch, the violence almost always happens off screen which is what you needed to do here. Unfortunately the film is just too violent to be within the prompt and the language is also a problem. You have talent and creativity for sure. Keep fostering it and you'll make it.
Great Acting!
I love the B&W. The long monologues were very Hitchcock and well-acted. It was a bit too violent for my tastes and I think you could have had the same impact without the numerous gunshots. Some of the shots were very cinematic but the acting is what really pulled me in.
