Writing Successful Screenplays

Guest: Drew Yanno, Screenwriter, Former Professor of Film at Boston College, Author of “The 3rd Act” and thriller "The Smart One" Think about the ending to a movie you saw recently. Did you like it? Did it ruin the rest of the film for you? It’s amazing how vehemently people can talk about the somewhat sad, somewhat happy, ending of the recent film “LA LA Land.” People feel very strongly about movie endings. As they well should, says Drew Yanno, an author and screenwriter. A great ending can make or break a film. Yanno’s actually written a book on writing great endings to screenplays called “The 3rd Act.”
