Masterclass

[TheConnorNoden]

I just became aware of Masterclass, a site that offers short video courses (around 5 hours) from high profile figures on a given subject. Aaron Sorkin has one on Screenwriting, and an upcoming one from David Mamet caught my eye. It's a bit pricey for me but has anyone plumped for these types of things before? Would you recommend it to someone who isn't a beginner?

Mamet already has many free videos available on the web:

There's a thread somewhere on these boards about the Sorkin class. A few of us took it and posted our thoughts. I enjoyed it, though I never quite managed to finish it. I did feel it was for beginning screenwriters.
