Summary: Distillation of Major Screenwriting Texts
Review: Marilyn Webber has provided yet another screenwriting book to accompany the many other "how to write a script" books out there. However, she does an good job of distilling those numerous tomes into a simple guideline for drafting your first script. It's a nice, clear and concise manual for first-time screenwriters. More seasoned veterans won't learn anything new here; it's the same principles we've heard since Aristotle. However, kudos to Webber for providing the truths of screenwriting in a succinct manner.

For those who need a little hand-holding in your screenwriting, or a "road map" as Webber describes it, this book's recommended.
