Normal People: The Scripts

Product Information

When I first read normal people i liked it but i certainly wasn’t obsessed but now i understand the craze. the millennial generation would no doubt be happy to accept her as its spokesperson were she so inclined. Adaptation is very interesting to me and this is a great example of when it is not done well - the adaptation of a work of art has no life or creative spirit of its own, it just takes the source material and converts it into another form, without any admirable intentions, with actually maybe the least admirable intention in mind - to take the source material and convert it into something more easily consumable. With an introduction by director Lenny Abrahamson and featuring iconic images from the show, this book contains the complete screenplays of the acclaimed Emmy-nominated television drama based on Sally Rooney’s bestselling novel.

although i will say that this was weird to read at times and i sense that it was not actually the original screenplay, someone just transcribed the show. Birch wrote on the TV adaptation of Normal People, alongside Sally Rooney and Mark O'Rowe, for which she and Rooney were nominated for an Emmy. So lazy and dispassionate, very clearly churned out for the shoot, completely technical rather than a labour of love, without any kind of cinematic vision or aspirations.
