I saw this movie twice in theatres, bought the DVD and watched it a few times more...it is among my top favourite movies. I cannot pin down the exact reason I like it or the stars. I ordered this screenplay because I was interested in seeing how much of it made it on screen, but also screen directions. The screenplay is worth it as it makes you appreciate the hard work from these then two unknown actor/screenwriters.

Interesting coming of age idea tension between value of individual choice and that of societal values. Not much mention, though, of putting your gifts to the service of human civilization for the good of all of us.

An absolutely brilliant screenplay written by a couple of boys who just liked movies a lot! Everything about this story is enhanced through the film and the wonderful performances but everything is still so genuinely recounted in just the screenplay that you can't help but love the whole damn thing.

This is my absolute favourite movie, so reading the original screenplay was amazing. I loved seeing where it all came from.
