Publisher's Synopsis
This book explains how to bring the ôInner Gameö to your screenplay - the one big thing a screenplay needs to really be good. With a good ôInner Game,ö a screenplay can succeed even if the scenes and lines arenÆt the best; but without one, it doesnÆt matter if the scenes are great and the dialog crackles, the screenplay isnÆt going to grab audiences. - - We all watch movies or read screenplays and ask ourselves, why did we love one and dislike another. The Inner Game of Screenwriting finally gives us the answer, and it has little to do with opponents, or quests, or dialogue tricks. The answer is whether or not the film or screenplay has a significant and well-structured ôInner Game.ö The Inner Game of Screenwriting goes through each of the twenty Inner Game Archetypes, and, through examples and exercises, explains how to construct them and let them make your screenplay a hit.
