Lessons from the Screenplay
I believe that a more informed audience raises the bar for storytelling. That examining the techniques used to tell great stories makes your own writing better and your appreciation for the stories deeper.
With Lessons from the Screenplay, I make videos that analyze movie scripts to examine exactly how and why they are so good at telling their stories. Part educational series and part love letter to awesome films, Lessons from the Screenplay aims to be a fun way to learn more about your favorite films and help us all become better storytellers.
I’ll be releasing new videos every couple weeks, and taking suggestions about what scripts I should look at in future episodes.

In our latest podcast episode, we revisit Sicario. I thought this movie was okay the first time I saw it, but upon revisiting it, I think it's *great*. Beautiful filmmaking that elevates the script, which is already full of dense, compelling themes and uncomfortable portraits of our reality.

I watched Mulholland Drive start to finish for the first time! In this season of our podcast, @BeyondTheScreenplay, each person on the team is choosing two of their favorite movies to discuss that we've never covered before. This has resulted in a lot of first-time-viewings for many of us, as it did for me with Mulholland Drive. Check out this preview of the episode!
