Rian Johnson's Screenplay For 'Looper' Now Available For Free

(aka Midnight Marauder)

I enjoyed this film when I saw in cinemas earlier in the year (already got the bluray on order for January), and now you can read the final draft of Rian Johnson's script for 'Looper'.

This is not a “shooting script” conformed to the final picture, it’s actually the final draft of the script we went into production with, and differs from the final film in many respects, which are hopefully more interesting than annoying.
A brief introduction is attached to the script.  Enjoy, share and disperse freely.

Rian Johnson's Video Pitch For 'Looper'

Here's the original promo pitch reel for Rian Johnson's awesome 'Looper', posted on his Vimeo. Rian asked Joseph Gordon-Levitt to record some voice-over, Zach Johnson did the sketches and with help from Ronen Verbit, constructed this 'fake trailer' using clips from other movies to show more some of the film's tone, and to show how the odd concept could be presented in a clear and compelling way.

I'm loving the darker, grittiness of this 'fake trailer' and the mashup of clips from Seven and Bladerunner. Would love somebody to make a movie of that!!!!
