"Before the course, I had many ideas on screenwriting that I had acquired from reading books and attending lectures, but they remained more or less abstract notions. This course was invaluable in helping me attain a more concrete and illuminating understanding of the craft. It feels like someone has flipped the light switch on."
- Raj Mahtani

Film Analysis Online
Film Analysis To excel at writing screenplays, one must do more than simply enjoy movies.  The screenwriter needs to study movies. Painters typically learn their craft by studying the work of masters, and most accomplished screenwriters do the same. Who better to show you the ropes of great screenwriting than those who created such films as Vertigo, The Graduate, and Thelma and Louise? Who better to inspire you to new heights? 

In this course, you will learn the craft of screenwriting by studying great movies. Each week focuses on an aspect of screenwriting craft in relation to a specific movie watched (or read) by the class.  Like works of fine art, these films are analyzed from every angle in a way that is instructive, inspiring, and entertaining.

If you seek to excel at screenwriting, let those who have been there show the way.
