Collider's 10 Movies With Screenplays Every Screenwriter Should Read, According to Reddit

"Reading a screenplay can often be a different experience from what you would see on the big screen. The words on the page can be identical to what you see or sometimes so changed around that it is hard to tell what you are watching. The writer is the one who dictates the pace and when the audience discovers new information. When reading a screenplay, you can see the initial intent of the work and can often provide a larger context to the work that has been made. Something these Redditors understand is the role a screenplay plays in the process. As a blueprint, it is a reference for all the artists and collaborators to work on the movie. A screenplay is crafted meticulously, though: every word and stage direction is carefully chosen." - collider.com
