Script Reading & Analysis: “Planes, Trains & Automobiles”

For our last script reading and analysis this year, I propose we read a holiday script. My suggestion is Planes, Trains & Automobiles, but I can’t find it hosted online anywhere. So two questions:

1. How many of you are interested in reading PT&A? We have yet to do a John Hughes script and this is a particularly good one.

2. I know there is a PDF of the June 23, 1987 shooting script floating around. Does anyone know if it’s hosted somewhere? If so, please post in comments.

Actually I have a third question: Do you want to continue with this monthly series? Participation in the actual discussion has been pretty lax. However I also hear from people via email they do actually use the series as a motivator to read the scripts.

I think everyone knows how important I believe reading movie scripts is, but I’d sure like to see more of an embrace of the series. If not, I suppose we could drop it.

Thoughts? Suggestions on how to increase participation?
