Scripts are very different to books. They are blueprints for building, not the building.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've read some scripts, but I don't read as many books as I should.
For the moment, whenever I read, it is normally scripts. You start a book and then you think, 'I should be reading these five scripts.'
I think part of the problem sometimes is that there's so much happening in my books, to whittle it down into a single script is hard.
The script is just a blueprint.
When I do a novel, I don't really use the script, I use the book; when I did Apocalypse Now, I used Heart of Darkness. Novels usually have so much rich material.
A script is not a piece of literature it's a process.
My main source of reading is scripts, which doesn't leave a whole lot of room for books.
I like to hold a book. When someone sends me a script, I ask for a hard copy or print one out.
My dad's got a brilliant eye for scripts 'cos he's a literary agent. He and my agent read a load of scripts and filter them.
Movies are not scripts - movies are films; they're not books, they're not the theatre.
