About this episode
Send us a textAmy's resident artsy friend Myriam is back on the podcast. This time the topic is screenplays as literature. A screenplay is a cross between a book and a play. Unlike a favourite book, Myriam says that reading a screenplay is complement to watching a movie. Amy and Myriam both agree that reading about harder topics like fights and violence can be easier to read than watch on the Big Screen.Books and Resources discussed:Mend the Living (The Heart) by Maylis de KerangalLost in Translation, movie (2003), written and directed by Sofia CoppolaOnce Upon a Time in Hollywood, movie (2019), written and directed by Quentin TarantinoOnce Upon a Time in Hollywood, book by Quentin TarantinoCODA, movie (2021), directed by Sian HederFargo, movie (1996), written and directed by Joel and Ethan CoenFurther recommendations from Myriam Beague:Collected Screenplays 1 by Ethan and Joel CoenThe Screen-writer's workbook by Syd FieldThe Before Trilogy screenplays by Richard LinklaterJules and Jim by Francois TruffautDay for Night by Roger CrittendenFinal Draft, Screenwriting Software Follow Red Fern Book Review:Website and to leave a voicemail: https://www.redfernbookreview.comInstagram: @redfernbookreviewFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/redfernbookreview/Newsletter: https://www.redfernbookreview.com/newsletter
