Tony Gilroy & Terry George on Writing

Hitchcock said that every film has three births; The Script, The Shoot and The Edit. Learning about the other two births is fundamental to pulling off the third.

Tony Gilroy and Terry George discuss their writing (and directing) process in a four part conversation at the Writers Guild of America East. Some great details amidst the personal anecdotes. Tony Gilroy has writing credits for Dolores Claiborne, The Bourne Identity and Michael Clayton. Terry George’s credits include In the Name of the Father, Hotel Rwanda, and Reservation Road.
