  • Thriller master writer/director Shane Black (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Lethal Weapon) discusses the critical elements of a taut, suspense-filled movie - raising stakes, unexpected reversals, and satisfying payoffs - using examples from such classics as Rocky, The Long Kiss Goodnight, and La Femme Nikita. Followed by the apocalyptic short film Blind Spot by writer/director Matthew Nayman.

    I always enjoy listening to insights on writing by Shane Black. He loves writers and writing. He explains the process of creating for the page and on the screen.

    'I don't know where it's gonna happen, maybe on the way to 7-Eleven, maybe kinda on the way back, I'm just gonna open my head, and somewhere along that walk I'm gonna have an idea. I'm not gonna force it, try to tell myself what the idea is right now. Let's just walk. Mission statement in mind - thriller - character - interest. Ok. Take a walk.'
    Genius.

    Gotta love that "haystack" analogy. Aristotle himself couldn't have done a better job explaining Reversals in drama.

    Really great tips. The haystack game can be an incredibly fun tool!

    Great bits by Shane Black! Really wish short film makers would learn when their shorts can be 30 seconds to 1 minute long especially for basic concepts like Blindspot..... Take a hint from CryptTV which makes 1 minute shorts and has seen huge success and stop torturing me with lengthy short films with little to say!!

      I think that would undercut the intent of the story.

    6:22 Ironically, I've always had Iron Man 3 on the top of my list of the most disappointing films with amazing trailers

    Long kiss goodnight was my least favorite Black script. The script felt a little sloppy.

      roger8654 the original script or the version that ended up used for the film? There's a difference between the two
