- Continually updated by releases.The scripts of feature films have been chosen by criteria such as the film or screenplay winning a major award ; the film was critically acclaimed ; the screenplay has historical or sociological significance ; it is part of the genres such as Film noir, Silent movies of the 1920's or a work by a key writer like Paul Schrader.This database is an ongoing project to digitize and thoroughly index 1,000 film scripts, so that the scripts become part of the established corpus of literary works. The primary focus of the database is the written work, rather than the film itself. It allows users to see and understand the structure of films, character development, beginnings and endings, plot points and scenes.
