4.0 out of 5 stars
Not the complete screenplay,
By Benjamin Stone (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dances with Wolves: The Illustrated Screenplay and Story Behind the Film (Paperback)
This being one of the most beautiful and inspiring movies of the last two decades, there are probably few people who haven't seen it at least once. For anyone interested in its background and the history of Native Americans, this book is a good starting point. However, it does NOT contain the complete screenplay. All of the important scenes are there (though stage directions are kept to a minimum), but a large part of the rest is told in prose narrative. Since there is no other publication of the screenplay around (the large hardback edition from Newmarket Press has the identical abridged version, plus photographs, minus the interviews) this can't be helped, but anyone buying this book should know they won't be getting the whole thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars
EMOTIONAL, INTENSE, AND HEARTWARMING,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dances with Wolves: The Illustrated Screenplay and Story Behind the Film (Paperback)
I bought this book after the movie came out and I've never regreted it. If anybody even remotely likes the movie, then they'll absolutely love the book. It gets so in debth about what he is thinking and feeling that you can't help but cry at the end just like the movie. So far I've probably read Dances with Wolves at least 20 times.

Tearbreaking and heartfelt,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dances with Wolves: The Illustrated Screenplay and Story Behind the Film (Paperback)
I read this truly great novel after seeing the screeplay. The novel is really rich in detail and emotion. I usually never feel this way about litterature but with this novel it is quite different. I can only recommend this masterpiece for everyone to read. I also began reading about the Indians and I now have a fascination for them.
