Title: BORing
Review: Luckily, I did not buy this book; I read it while enjoying coffee and cheesecake in a Barnes and Noble (sorry Amazon!). It states the obvious obviously. You'd be better off writing your script and asking your friends for their opinion.To illustrate - do you know the definition for protagonist, antagonist, conflict, drama? I certainly hope so! And do you really need 100 pages to define these terms for you? I certainly hope not!My advice for screenwriters who truly want to understand story is to read "The hero's journey, the mythological structure of storytelling" and Robert McKee's "story." Go to McKee's seminar. Buy some scripts. Download scripts off the Internet. Then buy the software - Final Draft is my personal favorite - and start writing. Let the software worry about how to format - it's all automatic.
