Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Being There and the Evolution of a Screenplay provides an insightful look at the drafting of one of Hollywood historys greatest scripts. Being There (1979) is generally considered the final film in Hal Ashbys triumphant 1970s career, which included the likes of Harold and Maude (1971) and Shampoo (1975). The film also showcases Peter Sellerss last great performance. In 2005, the Writers Guild of America included Being There on its list of 101 Best Scripts.Being There and the Evolution of a Screenplay features three versions of the script: an early draft by Jerzy Kosinski, based on his 1970 novel; a second by long-time Ashby collaborator and Oscar-winner Robert C. Jones, which makes substantial changes to Kosinkis; and a final draft written by Jones with Ashbys assistance, which makes further structural and narrative changes. Additionally, the book features facsimile pages from one of Kosinski's copy of the scripts that include handwritten notes, providing readers with valuable insight into the redrafting process. For each version, Ashby scholar Aaron Hunter adds perceptive analysis of the scripts development, the relationships of the writers who worked on it, and key studio and production details.This is both a presentation of the script of Being There, and a record of the process of crafting that script a text that will be of interest to film fans and scholars as well as writers and teachers of screenwriting. Evolution of a Screenplay is the first book of its kind to so amply demonstrate the creative development of a Hollywood script.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Casting fresh light on New Hollywood one of American cinemas most fertile eras Authoring Hal Ashby is the first sustained argument that, rather than a period dominated by genius auteurs, New Hollywood was an era of intense collaboration producing films of multiple-authorship. Centering its discussion on the films and filmmaking practice of director Hal Ashby (Harold and Maude, Shampoo, Being There), Hunters work demonstrates how the auteur paradigm has served not only to diminish several key films and filmmakers of the era, but also to underestimate and undervalue the key contributions to the eras films of cinematographers, editors, writers and other creative crew members. Placing Ashbys films and career within the historical context of his era to show how he actively resisted the auteur label, the author demonstrates how this resistance led to Ashbys marginalization by film executives of his time and within subsequent film scholarship. Through rigorous analysis of several films, Hunter moves on to demonstrate Ashbys own signature authorial contributions to his films and provides thorough and convincing demonstrations of the authorial contributions made by several of Ashbys key collaborators.Building on emerging scholarship on multiple-authorship, Authoring Hal Ashby lays out a creative new approach to understanding one of Hollywood cinemas most exciting eras and one of its most vital filmmakers.
