Recommendations for good screenplays to read

This isn’t for a project. I just want to get more into reading screenplays and scripts from TV and Film or any other recommendations.

Thank you for any help!

  • So many to choose from!

    I would suggest going to this website and searching for 'download scripts'. It will bring up blog posts of selections of scripts you can download and read. The guy who runs the site, Alex Ferrari, is a kind of firebrand of the independent film scene and he has tons of resources and a podcast too.

    This link should take you there -
    https://bulletproofscreenwriting.tv/?s=download+scripts

    But the site is bulletproofscreenwriting.tv if not :)

    Also I second Mustafa about reading good and bad stuff to see what works and what doesn't. Good luck!
  • Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid - it's a classic by William Goldman. Also check out any of Shane Black's scripts, they're amusing to read as well as informative.
  • Read scripts of films you enjoyed.
    Read scripts of films you didn’t enjoy - see what didn’t work for you.
