The Writers Hangout

Can Improv Really Make You a Better Screenwriter?


Listen Later

Our second episode features screenwriters Steve Mazur (Liar Liar, The Little Rascals, Phil) and Mark Steen (Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Dilbert, Sparks), who talk about how simply attending one improv class can make you a better writer! Steve and Mark also go head-to-head in a pop quiz battle to determine who knows their favorite movie best. Will it be Steve with Tom Hank's beloved BIG or Mark who answers questions from the entire JAMES BOND franchise?
