The Usual Suspects: Christopher McQuarrie

Synopsis:

Five criminals brought together in a framed line-up. Twenty seven bodies in Long Beach Harbour. One dying, terrified witness. One cop determined to unravel the truth. And one element connecting it all - Keyser Soze! Christopher McQuarrie's brilliantly original work won him both the US Academy Award and the BAFTA award for the Best Original Screenplay of 1995. The taut, sinewy writing weaves a densely textured tale that is as satisfying to read as it is to see on the screen. This volume also contains an in-depth interview with Christopher McQuarrie in which he reveals how he created the script.
