"The Psychology of Screenwriting "is more than an interesting book
on the theory and practice of screenwriting. It is also a
philosophical analysis of predetermination and freewill in the
context of writing and human life in our mediated world of
technology. Drawing on humanism, existentialism, Buddhism,
postmodernism and transhumanism, and diverse thinkers from Meister
Eckhart to Friedrich Nietzsche, Theodor Adorno, Jacques Derrida,
Jean Baudrillard and Gilles Deleuze, "The Psychology of
Screenwriting" will be of use to screenwriters, film students,
philosophers and all those interested in contemporary theory. This
book combines in-depth critical and cultural analysis with an
elaboration on practice in an innovative fashion. It explores how
people, such as those in the Dogme 95 movement, have tried to
overcome traditional screenwriting, looking in detail at the
psychology of writing and the practicalities of how to write well
for the screen. This is the first book to include high-theory with
screenwriting practice whilst incorporating the Enneagram for
character development. Numerous filmmakers and writers, including
David Lynch, Jim Jarmusch, David Cronenberg, Pedro Almodovar,
Darren Aronofsky, Sally Potter and Charlie Kaufman are explored.
"The Psychology of Screenwriting "is invaluable for those who want
to delve deeper into writingfor the screen.
