1.0 out of 5 stars
Just a bunch of interviews, January 22, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Screenwriter's Guide to Agents and Managers (Paperback)
There's not a lot of meat here, mostly just the transcripts of the author's interviews with a very limited number of people in the business. Most of the interviewees take extra care to promote themselves and berate the people off of whom they make their living, and very little of what they do in making a deal is revealed. 94 pages are contact lists, boilerplate, appendices and indexes with information that is mostly out of date or easily obtained elsewhere.

A readable how-to, April 10, 2001

I found John Lewinski's book to be very pertinent to the questions I had as a hopeful screenwriter. His very readable style makes me recommend it highly.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Making $1,000,000, April 11, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Screenwriter's Guide to Agents and Managers (Paperback)
Mr. Lewinski has done his research. Discussing the "how to's" with industry professionals, the author has gone straight to the jugular . . the topic on every aspiring screenwriter's mind: HOW DO I GET AN AGENT? HOW DO I GET A MANAGER? AND WHAT IN THE HE[ck] IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO!? You've punched out 120 pages of heartfelt goodness onto 8 1/2 by 11 white paper. Now's the time to get serious.
