Hi. I'm a writer currently living in Bozeman, Montana. As a historical consultant, I contributed in a small way to Eight Men Out, Rocketeer, various documentaries, and some film projects that never reached production. I have attended and volunteered at many Hatch film festivals, where I enjoyed a screenwriting workshop given by Richard Price most of all, but also enjoyed screening student films submitted in the annual competition. After years of straight historical research and writing, I am writing historical fiction — screenplays with elements of drama, adventure and comedy in the stories. I draw inspiration from the movie The Milagro Beanfield War, which treated a serious and divisive topic with respect for all people involved. I think a job reading scripts would help in my transition to writing solid, successful, sold screenplays. I see getting an agent as a challenge. I am pleased to meet you.

I agree. Reading scripts is definitely useful to furthering your own capabilities. Especially if they're good scripts. From time to time, RB would post some nice scripts (indie darlings) in the blog - do you ever read those? https://www.stage32.com/blog/Ex-Machina-and-Four-Other-Indie-Darling-Scr...
Thanks. I just joined the group. I have been reading scripts from Daily Script, which provides both movie and TV scripts, at http://www.dailyscript.com/index.html/. I'll check out the link.
You are welcome, Dirk.

Here are some more links: http://www.screenplays-online.de http://www.simplyscripts.com http://gointothestory.blcklst.com/free-script-downloads/ All scripts in English of course even if the first site is German. Hope you'll find the time to read. We expect your summary afterwards. :))
Thanks for the additional links. Those were provided in the MOOC I took: An Introduction to Screenwriting, taught by Michael Lengsfield and three other screenwriters via University of East Anglia on the FutureLearn platform. An excellent brief introduction.
I know FutureLearn too and use it, but I simply searched on Google for "screenplays online free" and wrote down the first results.
I simply listed the one that meets my current needs. Also, I found that a simple search by the title of a movie in quotation marks and the word screenplay will pop up the desired screenplay.
