Spitballing Indy: George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and the creation of Indiana Jones

Spitballing Indy: George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and the creation of Indiana Jones | Irresistible Content | Scoop.it

Niclas Holmqvist's insight:

"There’s a good reason we seldom get to spy on these conversations: really good spitballing, like improv comedy, requires a high degree of social disinhibition. So the writers’ room, like a therapist’s office, must remain inviolable."
