I've read several screenwriting books over the past few years; my favorites are writing for emotional impact, scriptshadow secrets, the bluebook series, etc. I never really got into the "mainstream" screenwriting books like save the cat and anything Syd Field
I'm debating if I should buy Story. For anyone who's read the book, does McKee really offer new ideas and tips you can't find elsewhere? Or is the book just a repetition of ideas in other popular books (aka, ideas I've probably read somewhere in the dozen or so books I already own)
Thanks!
