5.0 out of 5 stars
A great teacher, and a good book.,
By Wes Johnson (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Formatting Your Screenplay (Paperback)
I took Mr. Riechman's class at Georgetown University, and partnered with him on a few screenplays. Rick is an excellent teacher, and really does know his stuff. In regard to previous comments on the format being wrong in the book, it was an error on the part of the printer. I wish I knew where Rick was these days, I could use his sage advice. At least I still have the book :)

A great tool,

This review is from: Formatting Your Screenplay (Paperback)
This is not a sit-by-the-fire-and-enjoy-a-brandy sort of book. It does exactly what it says it will do and will teach you how to format your screenplay into a format that Hollywood readers expect. Every year thousands of screenplays are rejected without being read because they don't look like screenplays. Add this tool to your kit and at least get your scripts read.

This review is from: Formatting Your Screenplay (Paperback)
When I first realized I might have a story that was suitable for movie treatment I bought a couple of books which told me all about how to get ideas etc. but I couldn't find any hard copy on how to format. The general advice was read some manuscripts and learn from them. Good advice except these aren't types of manuscripts submitted the first time. I finally consulted Dr. Roger Busfield (author of The Playwright's Art) and he said Formatting Your Screenplay was the best book for learning how to correctly format a screenplay. He was right. It had the information I wanted in an easy-to-access form.
Coupled with The Playwright's Art it is an exclent addition to any beginning script writer's library.
