Featured Friday: Frontiers, Myths, and Legends
Weekend Read, our app for reading scripts on your phone, features a new curated collection of screenplays each week.
This week, we're pulling from our proposed film studies syllabus to focus on larger than life storytelling. These stories ask big questions about what makes a hero, and peel back the floorboards to look at the historical foundation of ideas we may take for granted.
Our collection includes:
- Bonnie and Clyde
- Gladiator
- Gravity
- Hell or High Water
- No Country for Old Men
- The Godfather (parts 1 & 2)
- There Will Be Blood
- Unforgiven
Read these and other featured collections only on Weekend Read 2, available on all Mac and iOS devices. Download for free!
