Finding Film Scripts Online
There are many online resources that you can use to find scripts, though many of them may not be fully comprehensive, and perhaps not completely legal. It's important to note that scripts come in a variety of forms, too, including spec scripts, many drafts, revisions, shooting scripts, continuity scripts, and transcripts made from the finished film. Non-English language scripts are difficult to find online. For more information, please refer to UCLA's Library Subject Guide for Film and Television, which has more links and resources to guide you.
Note: the links below are an incomplete list and should not be seen as exhaustive, nor should a website's inclusion here be interpreted as the Library's endorsement of the quality, version, or otherwise of the scripts.
