Featured Friday: Remembering Rob Reiner
Weekend Read, our app for reading scripts on your phone, features a new curated collection of screenplays each week.
This week, we remember Rob Reiner. Reiner brought the words of writers like Norah Ephron, William Goldman, Aaron Sorkin, and Stephen King to the screen, creating multiple modern day classics.
Our collection includes:
- A Few Good Men
- The American President
- Misery
- The Princess Bride
- When Harry Met Sally...
We've also included a link to the transcript of Scriptnotes episode 386, where John and Craig recorded a deep dive all about The Princess Bride.
I like writing because you can make things happen and turn out the way they never do in real life.
–Rob Reiner
This might also be inneresting: Kristin Marguerite Doidge lays out the multi-year collaboration between Reiner and Nora Ephron that took When Harry Met Sally... from concept to iconic rom-com.
