Written by Bob Fosse & Robert Alan Aurthur

  • Oftentimes, shooting drafts or drafts written by the director (like this one) might include specific camera directions, but this is not necessary in your early drafts.

  • Like the Alien script, each new sentence is a new quick action or image for the reader to focus on.

  • Certain words are underlined to move the reader through the paragraphs, but notice that the underlined words are arbitrary β€” because this sequence becomes something we see over and over again and it’s arbitrary for the character.
