Subject: Robert McKee

YES Robert McKee's story is a must read for any screenwriter! I'm can't believe the number of people that jump right into writing without first studying the craft. McKee talks a lot about the so called "Hollywood vs. non-Hollywood film" How some writers want to be so antistructure that they ignore format, characterization, etc..They call their script an "art film" then wonder why nobody wants it, when it's no more art than it is crap. The classical structure must be completely understood before it can be altered or manipulated into "art" Readers must get so frustrated with the amount of crap writing that pours in everyday. A golden script will always find it's way:)
