DICK TRACY— 2nd DRAFT
Scope and Contents
This draft is really the first real incarnation of the screenplay and the eventual movie. It’s the basis of the eventual movie and is very different than the first draft in tone and in characterizations. Although many of the characters remain from the First Draft, the Second Draft is much closer to what we wanted.
This draft has my hand notes in the margin that are notes in regards to changes in the Third Draft. John Landis exited the project as director and Walter Hill as direct and Joel Silver as Producer took over. Walter Hill is an MSU Alumni, as you probably know.
