Suggestion of site to find screenplays? at DVinfo.net

Federico Dib · November 17th, 2003, 07:51 PM

Hi,
I´m trying to find a good site with screenplays.
Any suggestions?

Specifically I´m in need of reading some old 60´s B series sci-fi or terror movie screenplays.

I guess it´s a long shot, but If anyone knows please let me know..

Thanx

No 60s B movies, but a great collection of scripts and a bunch of Hitchcock scripts. All free to download.

I like Book City, but they won't sell you scripts to films that haven't had release yet, even when it's plain from buzz that even the lowliest studio coffee gofers have photocopies of them on their nightstands--as were the cases with The Sixth Sense, American Beauty, A Beautiful Mind...

I often wonder if it wouldn't be easier to stroll up to the gates of Paramount and ask the booth guard permission to borrow his copy...

Thanx...
I think is going to be harder than I though, to find what I´m looking for.
But thanx anyway.

As is often the case, the best way to find something tricky to look for is through a person-to-person route. You might try making personal appeals for referrals until you find someone who can deliver.

Federico,

Post your question in the Scripts forum at Wordplay (www.wordplayer.com). If the screenplays you're after are out there, the people at this site will know.

All right.. Why didn´t I think of that?

Phillip and Robert...

I guess I´ll do what... I´ll check that forum.. and some others.
