The official screenplay book tie-in to the hilarious slacker comedy from Universal Pictures by Judd Apatow ( The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Freaks and Geeks ) about a very unexpected pregnancy.
They say that opposites attract. For slacker Ben Stone (Seth Rogen) and career girl Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl), that'scertainly the case—at least for one intoxicated evening. Two months and several pregnancy tests later, Ben and Alison go through a hysterically funny, anxious, and heartwarming journey that leads to huge laughs.
Featuring the complete script, plus commentary by filmmaker Judd Apatow and actress Charlyne Yi (who plays Jodi in the movie), stills from the film, full cast and crew credits, and an article by Sarah Vance that appeared in Script magazine, this Newmarket Shooting Script® book will be irresistible to the growing legion of Judd Apatow fans.

Knocked Up: The Shooting Script Reviews
-
One of the perks of getting an MFA in screenwriting is that one gets to read literary works like this and one calls it research.
About the script itself. I found it funny but most of the jokes worked better in screen than on these pages (e.g. the DeNiro impersonation dinner). -
This is ridiculous, in a good way. The premise of this story is so real time with the loser druggy turned accidental father and how he grows as a person to move beyond just himself to having take care of someone else. Funny story, realistic, and good concept.
-
Really hate the man-baby character of Ben.
