Writers Guild of America's TOP 10 Screenplays of All Time




IT would appear that "Annie Hall" (1977) is the most recent movie in the Top 10. In other words, no movie from the last 28+ years made the list. Is that more a function of how movies have changed (e.g. more focus on blockbusters and special effects) or the individual talent of the writers making the Top 10???

*** TOP 10 List ***
1. Casablanca (Julius J. & Philip G. Epstein and Howard Koch)
2. The Godfather (Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola)
3. Chinatown (Robert Towne)
4. Citizen Kane (Herman Mankiewicz and Orson Welles)
5. All About Eve (Joseph L. Mankiewicz)
6. Annie Hall (Woody Allen and Marshall Brickman)
7. Sunset Boulevard (Charles Brackett & Billy Wilder and D.M. Marshman Jr.)
8. Network (Paddy Chayefsky)
9. Some Like It Hot (Billy Wilder & I.A.L. Diamond)
10. The Godfather Part II (Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola)
