One of the best ways to learn how to write a script is by reading scripts. Ep3 of the Last of Us was rightly praised - read it here now: doctorscriptenstein.com/the-last-of-us… #TheLastOfUs #PEDROPASCAL #bellaramsey #script #scriptwriting #ScreenPlay

What is it that makes Alien feel so realistic despite it being set in space with a great big xenomorph - as you would guess it comes from the writing of the characters… doctorscriptenstein.com/alien-how-it-a… - Also check out Ridley Scott’s amazing storyboard sketches #alien #ridleyscott #film

I wrote about how if I'd been script consultant and script doctor on Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania I would've changed the screenplay to enhance the story. Read it here: doctorscriptenstein.com/ant-man-the-wa… #Quantumania #Marvel #MarvelStudios #movie #scriptconsultant #scriptdoctor #script

What’s a good film for the London heat? Do you go dry with Dune? Wet with Waterworld? Or just go for a London classic with The Long Good Friday? #movienight #film #bobhoskins #kevincostner #TimothéeChalamet

What’s the trick to finding time to do life as well as bang out 2000 words a day…? Seems like the only way is by having an Upstairs Downstairs amount of staff. #writerslife

Why is it that Sunday night is the time that some random starts repetitively banging in a weird way? Like a jackhammer his idiocy is echoing into the night…

Interesting thing about Havelock-Allan - at the start of his screenwriting career he wrote a lot of what were called ‘Quota Quickies’ - 12 movies in 1935 alone! I’ve got to track some of these down. Anyone out there seen them? #film #screenwriting #movie #briefencounter

Another one of the best on screen duos tonight in Trevor Howard & Celia Johnson. Adapted from Noel Coward’s play ‘Still Life’ by Coward himself, director David Lean, Ronald Neame and Anthony Havelock-Allan. #film #screenwriting #movie #briefencounter

Tonight’s watch: “Don’t Look Now” - one of my favourite films, if not my absolute favourite - great performances from Christie & Sutherland - Roeg’s masterpiece. Incredible script by Allen Scott (who also latterly wrote the the Queen’s Gambit) and Chris Bryant #film #venice
