Ah, it’s that time of year again. Free script season! When studios want Oscar consideration for their screenplays, they put up all that stuff for free so voters can easily access the materials and vote.
So, following suit, Sony Pictures Classics has put up seven scripts up for consideration including Charlie Kaufman’s “Synecdoche, New York” (a great read, nowhere near as dour as the film), Jenny Lumet’s lauded, “Rachel Getting Married” script (she’s the daughter of the great Sydney Lumet, btw), Philippe Claudel’s original, “I’ve Loved You So Long” screenplay (one of our fave films of the year), plus scripts of “The Class,” “Waltz With Bashir,” “Frozen River” and “O’Horten.” Get ’em while they’re hot.
