Writing the Romantic Comedy

Customer Reviews

BUY IT NOW! - By: , 06 Dec 2003
This book helped me shape my script. It prompted me to consider aspects that I had overlooked. One or two films mentioned are not reallly rom-coms, but it's still great. Don't forget you can buy scripts to films written by people like Richard Curtis. Read those too.

I got alll I wanted from this book & more.

Rom-coms are not the poor relation to 'good' films. They have to be just as well-crafted.

This seems to be the only book of its kind on the market.

Excellent advice for writers of romantic comedy - By: , 16 Sep 2001
This book is full of great ideas & advice which I have found very helpful in sparking off rom-com concepts. It's accessible & not burdened with technical jargon. There are writing excercises at the end of each chapter & lots of examples from famous movies throughout. If, like me, you're looking to specialise in romantic comedy, consider this a 5-star review. I would rate it's usefulness to general screenwriters at 4 stars, but if you are mainly into rom-com, I would heartily recommend this book as a starting point.
