The Nines, in script form

January 16, 2007 Projects, The Nines

trapSince some most readers won’t be able to catch the premiere in Park City, I’ve decided to give you the literary equivalent by posting the script online. Not the whole script, mind you, but enough of it so that you’ll get a sense of what you’re not seeing.

The script will be available on this site starting at 9:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time on Sunday, January 21st.1 Yes, that’s exactly when the movie is supposed to premiere. I’m trying to be fair to all concerned.

Anticipating the follow-up question: Yes. Whenever the movie hits real theaters,2 I’ll post the full script. But for now, this is as much as I feel comfortable revealing.

  1. That’s 8:30 p.m. Pacific, 11:30 p.m. Eastern. For readers outside the U.S., I won’t even try to do the time-math. ↩
  2. Which is by no means guaranteed, mind you. We’re hoping to find a great distributor at Sundance. ↩
