#BAFTA #TonyGilroy #TheBourneIdentity
Tony Gilroy has one of the most interesting resumes: The Cutting Edge, The Devil's Advocate, The Bourne movies, Michael Clayton, Rogue One.
Of all the pundits I've watched about screenwriting, Tony Gilroy is the most human, most passionate and the most honest writer I've seen. I love this guy.
Wish it was an hour long so that he could talk about the outlining process more, which he said was key.
Greetings fellow new Tony Gilroy stans after having just watched season 1 of ANDOR 🙋♀️
Yawn. Who are you if you haven't been with him since watching Bourne Identity?
Tony Gilroy is very authentic! Fell in love with his "Michael Clayton" film in instant - great strong experience.
Tony Gilroy comes on after 2:40 minutes. Thank you BAFTA Guru for this lecture.
Stephen Gaghan and Tony Gilroy are two of my favorite writers-directors. Bafta please get Stephen for one of this lectures!! Thanks for Tony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this whole thing. But if you want to just get the essential wisdom (to me) in just under 10 minutes, watch from 5:56 (where he talks about starting from nothing) up until 15:30. The key points: 1) Start small, and specific; 2) Look for "DNA scenes" that are small and specific, but give you a gateway into the story's larger themes; and when you know you've got one of those scenes, build the movie around it.
'It has to come from dialouge.' Very good point - I often begin a fiction project the same way.
The dialogue brings the movie to life.
I love his point about finding the *problems* and *difficulties* about situations to make it interesting. Too many movies nowadays make everything too easy for the hero or make the location all glamorized and idealized, so I really love how he keeps things grounded 'cause that's, as he puts it, where the interesting stuff is at.
The pitch of the voices is higher because in the US it’s 24 frames and in the UK it’s 25. The sound goes up in pitch as the whole movie gets slightly shorter.
From ntsc to pal.
Great lecture. Tony Gilroy could also be DeNiro's brother
I love this writer. I can identify fully with him, increasing the impact of his lecture. He talks about his process in absolutes, as if it is the only way to write a good screenplay. It is essentially the same as my own but I hear there are other ways by which one can create.
Should do one on Dan Gilroy (not sure if they are related) but Nightcrawler was amazing and we need this guy on here!!
SUN WARRIOR they are
I do that! I talk to myself while writing. It is super helpful 😃 ❤
Such a brilliant writer!! The Bourne Identity and Bourne Legacy -- Two of my all time favourite action movies!! (The former possibly my favourite) and when I saw Cutting Edge (moons ago), it was one of my favourite rom coms. Wish there was somewhere to learn from him or that he was on Masterclass or something like it.
I like this guy.....
I love him :o)
This guy has a great voice!!
How can those people sleep there I could listen to him for hours and hours without ever getting tired
they are not really interested OR they are imagining what he is talking about?
Great eye opener🎉
Totally brilliant.
25:29 is that Himesh Patel??? the lead actor from Yesterday (2019)
Nightcrawler is an absolute masterpiece
Agreed! Looking out for what Dan does next (Tony, as well). Talented family!
he did not write it tho, his brother did
He did good. All the best. Nice family. Take care.
This is a really great talk
your mom was great
These are FANTASTICO
This guy and Susannah Grant....just WOW!
Not knowing human behavior - like how people really behave - hasn't hurt the Nolans.
Michael Clayton is a great movie.
Tony is so fucking cool. I wanna be his friend.
Himesh Patel 25:30 !!!
Sorry but... Were can i get the COMPLETE vidéo ? ... Thanx !
Hi, nice video, but is there a way to see the ALL session ? Thanx.
I'm always amazed at Zhang Yimou's screenplay especially "House of Flying daggers".
Mei Dances...dance , dance , dance...
They fight, fight , fight...the fight stops...Jin says to Mei, "I came back for you, my love"...then they hold hands and continue fighting. Guards then chases them and they fight, fight , fight...Mei says, "You said you were going to take me where the real flowers grow". After that...they fight , fight , fight and while fighting they fall in love. She is actually in love with someone else...so two guys fight , fight , fight.
And Yimou makes it work! That is the amazing part. In the upcoming "The Great Wall"...Tony Gilroy and Yimou working with Matt Damon! Call me excited!
I don't like the logo on the upper left. :)
Saved rogue one ☝️
The interviewer could play a decent villain :)
