Scriptnotes Podcast - A podcast by John August and Craig Mazin - Tuesdays
Categories:
John talks with writer-director Noah Baumbach about his film Marriage Story. With script in hand, we discuss his writing process, handling overlapping dialogue, and how to find balance in a two-hander.
We also answer a listener question about LA vs. New York apartments (01:05:16), and the challenge of making boring things interesting.
In our bonus segment for premium members (01:14:26), Craig returns to discuss escape rooms!
