125 Years of Screenwriting. From the Lumière Brothers to the Nolan Brothers

The new book on screenwriting by Kamil Ahmedov stands out against traditional works on screenwriting with its meticulous systematization and historical approach. The development of dramatic composition—from traditional linear narrative to innovations of the 20th and 21st centuries—is traced by the author through examples from the works of D.W. Griffith, Lev Kuleshov, Sergei Eisenstein, Orson Welles, Akira Kurosawa, Alain Resnais, Michelangelo Antonioni, Alfred Hitchcock, Ingmar Bergman, Federico Fellini, Andrei Tarkovsky, Sergey Solovyov, Rashid Nugmanov, Quentin Tarantino, David Fincher, Christopher Nolan, and other famous filmmakers.
