V for Vendetta: From Screenplay to Film Paperback – 1 Jun. 2006

Amazing. FULL script and annotations for the first pages, and beautiful descriptions of the scenes. Then there is some imagery and beautiful depictions of the scenes. The part where it gives information on the scenes and how they created them is perfect, and is in first person!!! It feels as though you are on set with them, behind the scenes joining in the fun and awesome buzz of the film production!!!! The concept art, storyboards, sketches are great, and the end pages of concept one-sheet film covers and posters is fantastic!!!

Very good book. Contains the entire screenplay. The second part is devoted to the presentation of the process of filmmaking. It includes both descriptions and a lot of great photos. For dessert, the section devoted to the promotion so posters. There are plenty of them there, and most I saw for the first time in my life. For fans of the film is the position you must have in your collection. I recommend!

The result of going from Screenplay to film has made this is a Must See movie, as it has a powerful message apt for the times in which we are living. Though the Character V himself is taking personal revenge in the way of killing the leaders in control, his appeal to people is not one of violence. He appeals to people to wake up from their slumber and stand up against the endless lies and brutality of the regime. That this is the message is clearly seen in his speeches as well as the way in which the people respond to it.The scene at the end of the film where thousands of people, young and old march unarmed, hand in hand against the oppressors and the troops, is an extremely powerful message and reminiscent of the power of Gandhi's message of non-violence and civil disobedience.As this non-violent uprising culminates in the film on the 5th of November, it is a timely reminder to go out and buy this video and let the message sink in.

"V for Vendetta" does not show how things could become, but is a look at how things have become in the U.S. and other countries as well. To get a better idea of what the world has become (although the politicians are trying their darnedest to keep it hidden) one only needs to watch "V for Vendetta" to pierce the veil that hides the truth from so many.This movie shows the psychopathic people who are in control of a country and how they are abusing their power, as all psychopaths do. And although I am not endorsing the way that the revenge of "V" was handled, there is a sense of encouragement that one has while watching the movie.I think that "V for Vendetta" is a very important movie in its own right. It brings to light the true face behind the mask of those who are in power right now in real life. It is a movie that needs to be seen by those who think that their governments have their best interests at heart. To show them that 'Big Brother' is already here.
