Description
How to Recognize and Emulate the Structural Frameworks of Great Films
Linda Cowgill's new book, Secrets of Screenplay Structure, articulates the concepts of successful screenplay structure in a clear language, based on the study and analysis of great films from the thirties to present day. Secrets of Screenplay Structure helps writers understand how and why great films work as well as how great form and function can combine to bring a story alive.
In addition to in-depth analysis of the structure of great films, Cowgill's ground-breaking book covers ensemble and nonlinear films, such as Diner and Reservoir Dogs, that have previously not been analyzed in screenwriting "how-to" books.
Screenplay structure analysis covers the following films:

- Citizen Kane
- The Conformist
- Diner
- Grand Hotel
