Awards/获奖情况：“An insightful account of how psychological knowledge can elucidate and guide any filmmaking experience. Unquestionably, it is must read material for screenwriters and anyone interested in understanding the intricacies of storytelling in the motion picture industry.”---Dr. Maura Pilotti, Assistant Professor of Psychology Dowling College

“Indick brilliantly manages to bridge the gap between psychological theory and its application for screenwriting. The most important insight a writer can get from this book, is that it helps understand why a character’s behavior comes across as unbelievable. In the majority of cases, this will be because stages in a psychological process have been skipped or portrayed wrongly. An excellent addition to every screenwriter’s bookshelf.”---Screentalk Magazine

“I found the book extremely well written and readable and, more importantly, easy to understand even without a Ph. D. in psychology. It is a hands-on study of character traits and how they define people and their enacting with the social world around them. Great stuff.”---Guido Henkel, DVD Review

“一本利用心理学知识来指导电影制片的经典之作！毫无疑问的，这是一本编剧家以及那些想要了解电影中错综复杂故事的人们的必读书。”----莫拉??皮勒特博士，道林大学心理系助理教授
“作者巧妙的将心理学理论和电影剧作连接起来，而本书最成功之处，是使大家了解一个角色的行为为何如此令人难以置信的原因。在大多数的例子中，是由于心理描写或跨越不正确。一本给所有剧作家的优秀作品。”----《影视派对杂志》
“这本书非常值得一读，更重要的是，即便有很多心理学家的理论在里面，仍是通俗易懂。有亲自对于角色的研究，以及怎样定义所扮演它们的演员。极棒的一本书！”----乔拓??汉高，DVD评审
