Getting "Carjacked" on film was a dream come true for Michael Compton.
The English instructor at the University of Memphis has written movie scripts for years. But last month, a story line he wrote with wife Sherry Compton - about a single mother named Lorraine and her 5- year-old son who get carjacked by a bank robber - was the first one made into a movie.
