Review of Story: Substance, Structure, Style and The Principles of Screenwriting

Story: Substance, Structure, Style and The Principles of Screenwriting by Robert McKee

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Outstanding! Robert McKee offers a wealth of practical wisdom for screenwriters and authors alike. The principles of telling a story are applicable to many different mediums. Throughout this book, I resonated with the instruction and found myself thinking back on movies and books that I've either liked or disliked. Now I know why I formed the opinions that I did. I can honestly say that I'm a more-intelligent reader and movie-viewer than I was before. Mckee has a way of saying what I feel, but haven't been able to articulate. Story is a must-read for any author!
