Nighthawks: The First Draft (2016)
*** (out of 4)
This here is a fun and interesting interview with writer Paul Sylbert who discusses his screenplay for the 1981 film NIGHTHAWKS. If you've heard about this 1981 Sylvester Stallone film then you know that it had all sorts of production issues including the director walking off the picture and the actor taking control of the editing. Originally the screenplay was a lot different than what ended up on the screen so Sylbert tells some great stories about the production. He starts off talking about how he ended up getting the job and the details that the producers wanted in the film. From here we get into the production of the movie and how the film changed from what the original idea was. Fans of NIGHTHAWKS will certainly love this featurette since we get some pretty good details about the original screenplay and one can only wish that this version had ended up on the screen. Of course, Hollywood isn't a nice place so the film's end result is explained here.
