Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from Little Stories From the Screen

The use and value Of the synopsis is entirely temporary; once the play is filmed, the mission Of the synopsis is fulfilled, and it is discarded. The short story is permanent in character, and usually much Of its charm lies in its sparkling or moving dialogue. Ordinarily, all dialogue is omitted from the synopsis unless it is to be used as cut-ins, or explanatory matter, in printed words on the screen. The synopsis, therefore, lacks the smoothness, the polish, the elaboration.
