The Dying Gaul and Other Screenplays

by Craig Lucas, Steven Drukman (Editor)

American playwright Craig Lucas' shooting scripts for The Dying Gaul, The Secret Lives of Dentists, and Longtime Companion are all packed into this single volume. In The Dying Gaul, a struggling screenwriter finds himself in a conflict of interest when he falls in love with his film's executive producer. In The Secret Lives of Dentists, which won Lucas the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Screenplay in 2003, a married couple with a joint dental practice face adultery - and the flu - head first. And Longtime Companion delivers a breathless tale about the emergence of the AIDS epidemic through the eyes of several gay men and their circle of friends.
