Description: GOT A GREAT MOVIE IDEA? READ THIS BOOK FIRST MOVIES - CERTAINLY ONE OF THE CHIEF INFLUENCES IN OUR LIVES. How many of us has wondered at some time whether we can write a movie script of our own - one that is just as good or better than some we have seen recently. This paperback tells how the pros do it. It has a series of interviews with with industry leaders like James Cameron, Bruce Joel Rubin, Callie Khouri, John Singleton, Nicholas Kazan, Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandel. You may not recognize all the names immediately - but you have seen their work on the screen. They are all great writers and they talk well too about how they write, what they write, how they work with agents, what happens when you pitch an idea, how deals are made and broken - all the behind-the-scenes activity in Hollywood. It's a fascinating inside look. THE PAPERBACK ON OFFER HERE IS IN GOOD, SOUND CONDITION. It shows a little sun-tanning but the pages are crisp and clean, the binding is firm and square and there are no annoying underlines, margin notes or yellow marker pen highlights. There are no names written in it. If you have a really great idea for a movie and you want to pitch it, you may want to read this book first and learn a few things from the people who have actually done it.
