Adaptation.: The Shooting Script

Adaptation.: The Shooting Script

Spike Jonze
4.3/5 ( ratings)
"One of the most talked about scripts of the year, Adaptation is the story of an orchid collector , a journalist , and the screenwriter who, in adapting Orlean's bestselling book The Orchid Thief writes himself and his twin brother into the movie." "In the foreword, written exclusively for this Newmarket edition, Orlean reveals her own struggle to tell the story of the orchid, and her delight that "strangely, marvelously, hilariously, Kaufman's screenplay has ended up not being a literal adaptation of my book, but a spiritual one."" Kaufman and Jonze take readers behind the scenes of Adaptation and their other films to speak about how they collaborate, where truth and fiction diverge, the challenges of balancing various storylines, why they do not like to comment on the meaning of their work, and Kaufman's approach to writing.
