The real treat of watching "Tales from the Script" was getting to hear from the likes of William Goldman, Frank Darabont, John Carpenter, Shane Black and Guinevere Turner. The surprise came when the lesser-knowns (to me, at least) proved equally as compelling, as they espoused on their struggles, successes, and peculiarities with their chosen craft. The stories coming from these guys were informative, attention-grabbing and thoroughly entertaining.
I'm not a screenwriter, don't live in Hollywood, and came to this with the basest casual-fan knowledge, and I have much more respect for what these guys go through in this business at the bottom of the totem pole. It's beyond surreal, and that anyone can make a living out of it is indeed impressive. And that many of them are humble enough to acknowledge the luck of their professional careers is endearing.
Fascinating stuff.
8.5/10
