                      of a Screenplay
                      3 Draft Scripts with Commentary
                      Aaron Hunter, Maynooth University, Ireland
                   Being There (1979) is generally considered the
                   final film in Hal Ashby’s triumphant career. Being
                   There and the Evolution of a Screenplay features
three versions of the film's script: an initial draft by Jerzy Kosinski,
based on his 1970 novel; a second by Ashby collaborator and
Oscar-winner Robert C. Jones; and a final draft written by Jones with
Ashby’s assistance. Additionally, the book features facsimile pages
from Ashby’s copy of the scripts that include handwritten notes,
providing valuable insights into the redrafting process. This book is a
presentation of the script and a record of the process of crafting it.
