Rezensionen

'King's book is a revolutionary cry to dismantle the screenwriting patriarchy and decolonialize the craft of the screenplay once and for all. None of the old gurus are spared as King meticulously demonstrates how the rarely-contradicted rules of professional screenwriting are ideologically rooted in the oppression of historically excluded voices.'
