Great article.
My first exposure to Die Hard btw was the horrible 2001 French parody of it, Don’t Die Too Hard!
@Redolegna Do you know why Eric and Ramzy are apparently popular? They’re incredibly annoying and they genuinely shouldn’t be in movies
Reading about Stuart's record on Wiki, I could be wrong but he feels to me like the screenplay equivalent of one of those Great Authors who writes one or two hugely influential masterpieces and then is barely heard from again - his other big name affair being his input into The Fugitive.Die Hard is one of those rare blockbuster movies that has a perfect screenplay, like Sleuth or Chinatown or The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. There is no wastage. It's always funny to read about episodes like the near-death experience you alluded to leading to the screenwriter adding lots of new material in because it feels so complete that it is one of those things you almost imagine being written in a single sitting. It is one of those screnplays that could easily and credibly have been nominated for an Oscar.
