True Life,
By A Customer
This review is from: Blackrock: Original Screenplay (Currency Screen Plays) (Paperback)
Nick Enright is a brilliant playwright & his play, "Blackrock", is both captivating and well written. The most amazing aspect of this play, is that it is based on the truth!The story of "Blackrock" recounts an actual event, which occured in Australia to a young girl. Enright wrote the play (which was not originally called "Blackrock") to help the community deal with the girl's death. The Department of Eduction also used that original play as a Theatre in Education text which was studied throughout Australian High Schools. The play's name was changed to "Blackrock", when the movie was made. The reasons being; so that the title would 'sell' to the public and so that anonimity was provided to the people & place where the real event took place.

This was an amazing screenplay! I am a fan of Heath Ledger the actor who plays Toby in Blackrock so that was my first reason for buying the book but I am glad I did! You should definatly get this! I could not put it down! Its got everything! Sex, drugs, friendship, betrayal, surfing, murders, suicide, rape, cops...! Very serious issues and a very awesome book!
