If you want to know how HOLLYWOOD WORKS !

At first, I thought this was a book about the nuts and bolts of selling your screenplay. Boy, was I delightfully mistaken. This book shows me how the process works that enables you to sell your screenplay. For that, it's absolutely wonderful!! I never knew how buyers buy and sellers sell. Now, that I understand the process, I can taylor my own scripts to the real world, not some phoney intelluctual garbage about what "the market is."

I have other books of Syd Field's and I find them useful, inspiring and knowledgeable. I've even bought his video and find it extremely valuable and encouraging.

Syd Field is absolutely, without a doubt the best! In this book, he lets us know why Hollywood chooses one script over another. After years of perfecting your craft, you really deserve to know what Syd does. I thought I knew, but boy was I wrong! Syd, however, showed me the way. This is the best book on selling a screenplay ever written. Buy Screenplay and learn your craft. Then buy Selling a Screenplay and you'll be well on your way to success. My students are.

Syd Field CAN!

I really can't understand the reviewer from Hollywood who says Syd Field can't. He CAN! And luckily for us he DOES! Syd Field is a creative consultant of many years standing who works on more than one thousand scripts per year and knows the industry inside and out--better than anyone now writing books on screenwriting! In this book, Syd shares his wealth of knowledge with us about how Hollywood works. Exactly how it works. And you have to know if you want to make it in this tough, competitive field. I've learned more from Syd's books than from all the other books on screenwriting combined. You can't go wrong with Syd, believe me! Thanks!

A good place to start

This is a good, solid introduction to selling your screenplay and finding an agent. There's nothing much here that isn't found in a lot of other books, but someone starting will find this really useful.
