Wes Anderson on Writing

stayforthecredits: “I use little notebooks. I write out everything longhand first, then I type it into the computer. Back when Owen and I were working together, he would write in longhand also. Rushmore, Royal Tenenbaums, and The Life Aquatic are all in small notebooks like this…[Anderson presents a pocket-sized notebook, and flips through the pages showing carefully sketched portrait drawings very similar to the chapter headings featured in The Royal Tenenbaums] I create seven of these for each film for some reason.—————-

labarceloneta:There seems to be a pattern emerging since Tarantino professed his love for longhand at the FAQ for Inglourious Basterds. Anyone know other writers/directors who prefer writing longhand? comment!

I read in an article that horror writer/director Eli Roth writes his stuff longhand and that he was looking forward to writing Hostel 2 in notebooks, sitting in Italian cafes.

That’s just because everything is just better when you’re sitting in Italian cafes.
