The USC Scripter award was handed out this week. For those who aren't aware, this may be the only award that is given not only to the adapted screenplay, but also to the original work (i.e. book, graphic novel) that the screenplay was adapted from. Kinda cool. This year, the nominees were...
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Iron Man
The Reader
Revolutionary Road
Slumdog Millionaire
And the winner is...no surprise here...Slumdog Millionaire. Simon Beaufoy picked up yet another award for his adaptation of the "Q & A" book that Slumdog is based from, bringing his award total to somewhere around the 8 area I believe. He is also nominated for the upcoming BAFTA's, and of course the Oscars.
