Best American Screenplays for those who love films

This is an excellent collection of screenplays for those who enjoy films. Reading the written word as well as watching the film provides great depth and insight for those truly classic films.

Useful collection of classic screenplays.

The screenplays in this collection range from golden age to relatively modern. They include:All Quiet on the Western Front Meet John Doe Casablanca Miracle on 34th Street Rebel Without a Cause Bonnie and Clyde The Graduate Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Sounder On Golden Pond Arthur The CandidateIt's also worth reading for the very entertaining and useful foreward by Frank Capra. Beware of only one thing: the typeface in this book is very tiny and takes some getting used to.Worthwhile book for students of film and screenwriting.
