I highly recommend 'Adaptation The Shooting Script', not only for the thrill of reading such an original and acclaimed complete script, but it also has a wonderful foreward from Susan Orleans whose book 'The Orchid Thief' appears as the main character of the movie , an interview with Charlie Kaufman and Spike Jonze, a critical commentary from Robert Mckee and 24 black and white movie stills.

Has anyone else read the book?

IT so is eva, worthy of a place in any Nic fan's collection.flowerface

A couple of things leap out at me today, how NICe it is to read Charlie's rambling soliloquys on paper. the picture of Spike Jonze holding a page of the script, scrumpled and scrawled all over. And it fell open at this page of the Q&A interview with Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman at the end:

Charlie Kaufman: I'm interested in things. I'm interested in people and how they interact and, if I ever do it well, then it's interesting. it's not about FX or pyrotechnics or a string of gags for me---even though I like stuff like that---I'm more interested in the people there.

Your english is brilliant eva! starry and thank you for your responses! 

Charlie Kaufman was saying he likes to focus on the people (characters) and their relationships in his films, not special effects! flowerface
