Screenplay Collection

The Yale Film Archive has more than 150 published screenplays. The collection started in 2014 with over 70 screenplays donated by Yale alumna, screenwriter, and faculty member Camille Thomasson. In creating the first circulating screenplay collection at the Film Archive, Ms. Thomasson hopes to foster a greater understanding of the screenwriter’s role in the history of film and in the filmmaking process. We share that goal and encourage you to explore this immensely valuable collection.
