Featured Friday: Winter Dramas

Weekend Read, our app for reading scripts on your phone, features a new curated collection of screenplays each week.

This week, we settle into January with some of our favorite dramas set during these long, cold winter months. Real talk, when I scheduled this I was hoping the Heated Rivalry pilot would be available by now. But it’s not, and like the gray January slush, we’re all just going to have to deal with it.

Our collection includes:

  • Carol by Phyllis Nagy
  • Eddie the Eagle by Sean Macaulay
  • Eileen by Luke Goebel and Ottessa Moshfegh
  • Fargo by Ethan Coen & Joel Coen
  • Fargo - “Pilot” by Noah Hawley
  • Hold the Dark by Macon Blair
  • I, Tonya by Steven Rogers
  • Let Me In by Matt Reeves
  • Little Women by Greta Gerwig
  • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Steven Zaillian
  • The Holdovers by David Hemingson
  • The Ice Storm by James Schamus
  • The Revenant by Mark L Smith
  • Wind River by Taylor Sheridan
  • Winter’s Bone by Debra Granik and Anne Rosellini

Read these and other featured collections only on Weekend Read 2, available on all Mac and iOS devices. Download for free!
