Weekend Read

Weekend Read, our app for reading scripts on your phone, features a new curated collection of screenplays each week.

This week, we look at ensemble movies with multiple plots that all add up to something bigger. It’s extremely difficult to balance, maintain momentum and bring it all together in the end, but looking at the screenplay can offer insights into how these tapestries are woven together.

Our collection includes:

• American Graffiti by George Lucas, Gloria Katz & Willard Huyck
• Babel by Guillermo Arriaga
• Bad Times at the El Royale by Drew Goddard
• Cloud Atlas by A. Wachowski, L. Wachowski, T. Tykwer
• Crash by Paul Haggis & Robert Moresco
• Dazed and Confused by Richard Linklater
• Dunkirk by Christopher Nolan
• Go by John August
• Happiness by Todd Solondz
• Magnolia by Paul Thomas Anderson
• Pulp Fiction by Quentin Tarantino & Roger Avary
• The Big Short by Charles Randolph and Adam McKay
• The French Dispatch by Wes Anderson
• The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected) by Noah Baumbach
• Traffic by Stephen Gaghan
