Spanglish: The Shooting Script

Description

Here is the complete book on Spanglish, the fifth movie directed by James L. Brooks, the story of Flor (Sex and Lucia's Paz Vega) emigrating to Los Angeles from Mexico in hopes of finding a better life for herself and her daughter. Hired by John and Deborah Clasky (Punch-Drunk Love's Adam Sandler and Flirting with Disaster's TÉa Leoni) as their housekeeper, Flor contends with the language barrier, clash of cultures, and the eccentric Claskys' way of life in this honest look at marriage, parenting, and devotion to family.

The Newmarket Shooting Script® book includes an insightful introduction by writer/director James L. Brooks, the complete original screenplay, scene notes, an exclusive Q&A with Brooks on his creative process, stills, and credits.
