Dan O’Bannon famously crafted his screenplays using a self-designed system which he called “dynamic structure.” This book outlines how O’Bannon’s method differs from those of other well-known screenwriting gurus, and illustrates with examples from classic (and not-so-classic) films how dynamic structure can be applied to craft narrative and character. O’Bannon also includes his insights on subjects such as the logic of the three-act structure, the role of the producer in screenplay development, and the psychological principle known as “hedonic adaptation,” which has a unique effect on the structuring of screen stories.

Que retenir de la fantastique aventure de Métal Hurlant entre 1975 et 1987 ? Répondre à une telle question est un défi que seul Jean-Pierre Dionnet, son cofondateur et rédacteur en chef historique, pouvait relever. Il a fait une première sélection de 23 histoires courtes qui, selon lui, constituent l’essence de Métal Hurlant. On y retrouvera The Long Tomorrow de Mœbius et Dan O’Bannon, qui a influencé le film Blade Runner, Agorn de Philippe Druillet ou Crux Universalis Eternity Road d'Enki Bilal. Et d'autres auteurs qui ont marqué l'histoire du genre, dont Mézières, Gillon, Claveloux, Schuiten ou Jean-Claude Gal.
