From the critically-acclaimed independent filmmaker, Michael Roemer, comes Film Stories: Screenplays as Story, a highly-anticipated first collection of screenplays. Beyond film scripts, this two volume set is designed to help film students master concepts like three-act structure, conflict, surprise, rising action, and crisis, while crafting not only a story, but a story that tells. Volume One contains the screenplays for Nothing But a Man, The Plot Against Harry, Stone My Heart, and Pilgrim, Farewell. Volume One also features a comprehensive introduction entitled 'Beginnings,' in which Roemer discusses the creations of his screenplays and supplies anecdotes on the making and distribution of his films that any screenwriter or filmmaker will find invaluable. Volume Two contains the screenplays for Losing Emily, Famous Long Ago, Mortal Longings, Act of God, and Sad but Funny.
