Sort of brought the first post up to date. I always find that weird, when the first post is up to date and then followed by the very early posts of a project. The first post is a hodgepodge now of early stuff and newer info.


Hey, who wants to read the script to The Majestic Fool?

http://orangecow.org/thief/themajesticfoolscreenplay.txt

This strange 1969 script starred Mullah Nasrudin - this is the script that eventually evolved into the Thief and the Cobbler. Although almost unrecognizable from what it later became, you'll recognize elements including a lot of sight gags with The Thief, and many supporting characters.

This was OCR-scanned from a copy. Thus, the automatic text-recognizing system made a lot of mistakes. I've cleaned up the first third or so of the script, ending at the cave lair scene with Anwar and the vulture. The rest may be harder to read.
