Screenplay by Dan O'Bannon

Story by Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett

  • The description in this script is written like a poem, which rids it of clunky nouns and articles.

  • Each new action or idea is presented on a new line, which keeps it moving and helps the reader see each new shot or cut.

  • Not only does this spare style of writing make for an effortless read, but it also suggests that the film itself will posses a clean, lyrical pace and visual style.
