Adventures in the Screen Trade: A Personal View of Hollywood and Screenwriting by William Goldman

4.0

I've wanted to read William Goldman's account of what it has been like as a screenwriter [Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, All the President's Men, Marathan Man] for Goldman and it didn't disappoint. In fact, what makes this such a delight is the fact that Goldman is surprisingly blunt with his opinions regarding individuals he's worked with on these films. How refreshing! The book isn't gossippy, it's just matter of fact as Goldman talks about his opinions on what it was like to work on the films. Lots of insider information and stories of the films that really made me see some great movies in a new light. Recommended for film fans!
