If there is one skill that separates the professional screenwriter from the amateur, it is the ability to rewrite successfully. From Jack Epps, Jr., the screenwriter of
Top Gun,
Dick Tracy, and
The Secret of My Success, comes a comprehensive guide that explores the many layers of rewriting.
In
Screenwriting is Rewriting, Epps provides a practical and tested approach to organizing notes, creating a game plan, and executing a series of focused passes that address the story, character, theme, structure, and plot issues. Included are sample notes, game plans, and beat sheets from Epps’ work on films such as
Sister Act and
Turner and Hooch.
Also featured are exclusive interviews with Academy Award® winning screenwriters Robert Towne (
Chinatown) and Frank Pierson (
Dog Day Afternoon), along with Academy Award® nominee Susannah Grant (
Erin Brockovich).
