Reading Professional Screenplays
'The longer you're in this [film] business . . . you realize that the end of the first stage is the script, and the minute you take that material to the next stage, you are doing a translation that you have to turn into visuals, and often the visuals afford you great economy; you don't need all those words. The audience gets it.'
-- Joan Tewkesbury
