Preston Sturges was one of America's great filmmakers. He won the first Acadamy Award ever given for Best Original Screenplay for the script. His films remain celebrated to this day, and they should.
Every script above is published in book form in a reproduction of the original shooting script.
Every print has been restored and remastered and is available in video, laser disc and soon to be dvd. He has been honored at nearly 100 film festivals throughout the world, most recently by the British Film Institute in May 2000. There have been numerous studies of his life, and the total number of books written either entirely or substantially about him now numbers twelve. We have added a complete filmography courtesy of Mr. Jim Curtis, a much respected author and Preston Sturges friend and fan. The family personally responds to every e-mail we receive, and we are proud to report that this site has served as a reference point and information center for over 10,000 guests since it opened in June 1998.
