Featured Friday: Fractured Narratives
Weekend Read, our app for reading scripts on your phone, features a new curated collection of screenplays each week.
Tying in with this week's Inneresting about Layered Narrative Structures, we're highlighting some scripts that play with an audience's idea of time, truth, and/or causality.
This week's scripts include:
- American Graffiti by George Lucas, Gloria Katz & Willard Huyck
- Citizen Kane by Herman J. Mankiewicz & Orson Welles
- Cloud Atlas by Lana Wachowski, Lilly Wachowski, and Tom Twyker (based on the novel by David Mitchell)
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind by Charlie Kaufman
- Go by John August
- Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
- Little Women by Greta Gerwig (based on the novel by Louisa May Alcott)
- Magnolia by Paul Thomas Anderson
- Memento by Christopher Nolan (based on a short story by Jonathan Nolan)
