## Description

Story: Style, Structure, Substance, and the Principles of Screenwriting : McKee, Robert: desertcart.in: Books

Review: Worth ! - Good Book for anyone who wants to get into screenplay writing
Review: The Book - the only book - I have read this book since 2005. I re-bought a copy. This must tell many things - to each his own. For me the content is a complete discussion followed through with extant examples from World Cinema. It precisely answers the question: what is a story. It then homes into stories for the cinema; why is it different from prose and dialogue-based theatre. The pitfalls that the screenwriter needs to avoid. It takes time to absorb. It still is not entirely absorbed.
