Movie Screenplays Released As eBooks

If you are a movie fan and you like studying English, you might just be interested in the latest
initiative of the Hollywood movie studio Warner Brothers. The company has released a series of
screenplays of its classic movies as eBooks. The scripts are full of images, diagrams and facts in
addition to the conversations and dialogues from the films. Now English students can read up on the
movie and read along while they watch it. The digital scripts also give English teachers a valuable
new tool to use in the classroom. Many students like to learn English via movies. The eBooks are
currently on sale on Amazon.com at around $8. The books can be downloaded on Apple's
iBookstore and are available for the Nook eBook reader.
So far only a small selection of movie scripts has been released. These include An American in
Paris, Ben Hur, Casablanca and North by Northwest. President of Warner Brothers digital
distribution Thomas Gewecke explained why he thinks the new products will prove popular:
"People love movies because of the stories they tell," he said. "Now we can give fans rarely seen
details of how these stories came together and take their enjoyment of films to a whole new level,"
he added. Mr Gewecke said the eBooks are just for classic movies at the moment but that books for
newer movies will be released in the future. It will be some time however before the eBook
coincides with the movie release.
