Description
Writing and Selling Drama Screenplays includes detailed case studies of produced dramas made on both shoestring and bigger budgets, and industry insights from their writers, directors and producers. It looks in-depth at Scottish BAFTA-winning Night People, the iconic coming out movie Beautiful Thing (Film4, 1996), the touching New Orleans drama Hours , starring the late Paul Walker (Pantelion, 2013) and the ambitious true story of Saving Mr Banks (Disney, 2013), based on the battle of wills between Mary Poppins author P. L. Travers and Walt Disney himself.
