  • ""This fascinating insider's look full of personal anecdotes and assessments of notable screenplays, covers all of Goldman's brilliant career. He takes us inside the first rehearsal for 'The princess bride', where we witness Mandy Patinkin slapping Andre the Giant. He explains why James Caan came to be casted for 'Misery', while William Hurt, Harrison Ford and Michael Douglas didn't. He goes on to analyse classic movie scenes such as the crop-duster scene from 'North by northwest' and the zipper scene from 'There's something about Mary'. And to top it all off, he provides an original screenplay of his own and the unforgiving critiques it received from six fellow screenwriters."--Back cover."@en
  • "From the Oscar-winning screenwriter of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Princess Bride (he also wrote the novel), and the bestselling author of Adventures in the Screen Trade comes a garrulous new book that is as much a screenwriting how-to (and how-not-to) manual as it is a feast of insider information. If you want to know why a no-name like Kathy Bates was cast in Misery-it's in here. Or why Linda Hunt's brilliant work in Maverick didn't make the final cut-William Goldman gives you the straight truth. Why Clint Eastwood loves working with Gene Hackman and how MTV has changed movies for the worse-William Goldman, one of the most successful screenwriters in Hollywood today, tells all he knows. Devastatingly eye-opening and endlessly entertaining, Which Lie Did I Tell' is indispensable reading for anyone even slightly intrigued by the process of how a movie gets made. From the Trade Paperback edition."@en
