Have you ever wondered what it takes to write a great movie script? Studied your favorite films to see what makes them so magical? Beyond the Hero: Relationship Driven Screenwriting and the Secret to Hollywood's Greatest Scripts is a how-to screenwriting guide built on the foundational idea that great movies--across all genres and styles--are driven by a core relationship between two central characters. Using this fresh alternative to the singular "Hero's Journey" approach dominating most screenwriting instruction and theory, unlock patterns in the movies we love to reveal a vast gallery of dramatic duos and gain a new perspective on creating your own engrossing, compelling scripts.

Beyond the Hero readers will understand that what truly captures the attention and emotion of an audience is the fate of this dramatic couple, with audiences wondering "what will happen to them next?" Through workshop-style lessons and exercises, author and screenwriter Michael Weiss offers step-by-step guidance from brainstorming, outlining, and writing a first draft, to time management and pitching--teaching screenwriters how to craft their own relationship driven screenplays from premise to sale. First-time screenwriters and industry veterans alike will find a new set of useful tools to take their scripts to the next level and create more powerful, Hollywood-ready screenplays.
