The thirteen featured writers-Albert Brooks, Jean-Claude Carrière, Nora Ephron, Ronald Harwood, John Hughes, David Koepp, Richard LaGravenese, Barry Levinson, Eric Roth, John Sayles, Tom Stoppard, Barbara Turner, and Rudy Wurlitzer-are not confined to the 1990's, but their engrossing, detailed, and richly personal stories create, in McGilligan's words, "a snapshot of a profession in motion." Emphasizing the craft of writing and the process of collaboration, this new volume looks at how Hollywood is changing to meet new economic and creative challenges. Backstory 5 explores how these writers come up with their ideas, how they go about adapting a stage play or work of fiction, how they organize and structure their work, and much more. 606 $aScreenwriters$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$vInterviews 606 $aMotion picture authorship$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$vInterviews 610 $a1990s. 610 $aadaptations. 610 $aalbert brooks. 610 $abackstory. 610 $abarbara turner. 610 $abarry levinson. 610 $abehind the scenes. 610 $abiographical. 610 $acareer. 610 $acollaborative projects. 610 $acontemporary. 610 $adavid koepp. 610 $aeric roth. 610 $afictional works. 610 $ajean claude carriere. 610 $ajohn hughes. 610 $ajohn sayles. 610 $amovie writers. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $anora ephron. 610 $apersonal interviews. 610 $apop culture. 610 $apopular movies. 610 $apopular television. 610 $arichard lagravenese. 610 $aronald harwood. 610 $arudy wurlitzer. 610 $ascreenwriters. 610 $astage plays. 610 $atelevision writers. 610 $atom stoppard. 610 $awriting. 615 0$aScreenwriters 615 0$aMotion picture authorship 676 $a812/.5409 701 $aMcGilligan$b Patrick$0554684 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788998203321 996 $aBackstory 5$93833443 997 $aUNINA
