Plots and characters

"Most screenwriting books are for the blindly ambitious writer, skimming over the grim realities of "making it" in Hollywood and reducing the screenwriting process to no more than a formulaic hack job. Not Plots and Characters, a provocative road map to life - on and off the screen-from veteran screenwriter Millard Kaufman."--BOOK JACKET. "Ultimately, Kaufman has created the quintessential "how-to" book which dives into the nuts and bolts of screenwriting with the jocular descriptions and scathing opinion only a seasoned veteran can pull off."--BOOK JACKET.
