Most screenwriting books focus on how to write a "good" screenplay. But in the movie business, a screenplay isn't "good" unless it might one day get made into a movie. A seasoned development executive, Alex Epstein has not only seen his own television and movie scripts produced, he has accepted and rejected countless screenplays and supervised dozens of writers. Now, in this indispensable guide, he shows you how to write a script that will make a producer think, "This is a movie!" Fresh, provocative, and funny, Crafty Screenwriting answers questions other books don't even ask and cheerfully slaughters the sacred cows of "how-to" screenwriting.
