A review by starringskie
Story: Style, Structure, Substance, and the Principles of Screenwriting by Robert McKee

3.0

This book took me way longer than books of its size usually do (three weeks), but I feel that it was time well spent. McKee gives interesting insight and even more interesting examples (I'm pretty sure Casablanca and Kramer vs Kramer are his favorite movies, and he sold them well enough to make me want to check them out. I'm not touching Chinatown with a 10ft pole, though), even if he sometimes gets repetitive or talks too much about a subject.

My particular edition of the book was terrible, full of spelling and formatting mistakes, but that's not the author's fault. Still, if you are Brazilian, don't read the first edition of the book.
