Screenwriting

Tim Grierson

Screenwriting looks at the foundation on which every great film is built―the script. Whether an original concept or an adaptation, the screenplay is the key to the success of a movie―good dialogue, story pacing, and character development are the framework everything else hangs on. Featuring in-depth interviews with modern masters of film including Stephen Gaghan, Guillermo Arriaga, Caroline Thompson, Hossein Amini, and Jean-Claude Carrière, this book reveals the mysteries behind how the best scripts are written and reach the screen.
