Great share, Dan! Thanks for posting. Loved the script excerpts along with Heisserer explaining his exploration and problem solving. This is one film I'm hoping to see, and I look forward to reading the screenplay in its entirety. ;)

beth I like how he inserted pictures & diagrams because he couldn't explain them in the script :)
Yes, l liked that too. Seemed the perfect solution for this particular story. :)

A totally brilliant essay, ending up with "exactly" what Jake Krueger said in his podcast on Dr. Strange. He and the director were guided by how the story made them feel and communicating the feeling to audiences. Thanks for posting. I'm dying to see the movie now.
Already read some threads on how the VO change from script to screen (to dumb it down) lessened the impact of the final reveal. Looking forward to seeing it soon :)
This is wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
