Coolest Geek Alive

You’ve probably seen the FILM, but MOST people DO NOT EVEN KNOW that it is based on an EVEN BETTER BOOK by TWO-TIME ACADEMY AWARD-WINNING WRITER, William Goldman, the single greatest WRITER who has EVER LIVED. William Goldman NOT ONLY won the OSCAR for BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY (For “Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid”), but ALSO an OSCAR for BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY! And William Goldman is one of the great writers of our time who taught the Coolest Geek Alive a thing or 2 MILLION about how to properly adapt from existing source material. That is, of course, with true LOVE & RESPECT. Join professional writer Jesse Blaze Snider as he GUSHES about the NOVEL, the FILM and the incredibly talented man who wrote it, William Goldman. You’re in for a TREAT! Jesse really gets passionate on this episode, lol. Enjoy!!
