VARIA
WIE MAN TRÄUME VERKAUFT
Ein Muss für Drehbuchautor*innen: William Goldmans wilde Mischung aus Autobiografie, Hommage ans Kino, Filmbusiness-Kritik und dramaturgischen Exkursen. Selbstbewusst, detailverliebt, hochironisch. Sprichwörtlich wurde Goldmans Urteil über die Kompetenzen von Hollywood-Produzenten: „Nobody knows anything.“ Auch zum Immer-wieder-Lesen bestens geeignet.
