William Goldman : ADVENTURES IN THE SCREEN TRADE

[K HjLL]

author's note

This book was begun at the greatest time of panic and despair in modern Hollywood history-late January of '82. Future film scholars may well term it " Heaven's Gate era. "

I don't know. But, I was born in January of '82. Can't wait to see how William Golodman helps carve out my spaghetti Westerns and future writing.

I also learned I need $10,000 for editing equipment and a camera and 100dollars for a motor And I can make a Parinormal Activity, Blair witch Project, death Proof and vanishing point. In a week of welding and a week of shooting.............
