Barbara Turner – Scripts on Screen

Georgia Script

Year:1995

Director:Ulu Grosbard

Written by:Barbara Turner (Screenplay)

Script Synopsis:Sadie looks up to her older sister Georgia, a successful folk singer who's happily married with children, but can't break out of the bar-band circuit and hit the big time she desperately covets. It's in part due to her attraction to drugs and booze, and also to her own unwise choice in men. Finally, though, Sadie's Achilles heel is a rough, unlovely voice very different than her sister's crowd-pleasing singing.

Pollock Script

Year:2000

Director:Ed Harris

Written by:Steven Naifeh (Novel), Gregory White Smith (Novel), Barbara Turner (Screenplay), Susan Emshwiller (Screenplay)

Script Synopsis:In August of 1949, Life Magazine ran a banner headline that begged the question: "Jackson Pollock: Is he the greatest living painter in the United States?" The film is a look back into the life of an extraordinary man, a man who has fittingly been called "an artist dedicated to concealment, a celebrity who nobody knew." As he struggled with self-doubt, engaging in a lonely tug-of-war between needing to express himself and wanting to shut the world out, Pollock began a downward spiral.
