Description: The Drowning Pool (Original screenplay for the 1975 film) Author: Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward (starring); Stuart Rosenberg (director); Tracy Keenan Wynn (screenwriter); Ross Macdonald (novel) Title: The Drowning Pool (Original screenplay for the 1975 film) Publication: Burbank, CA: Warner Brothers / First Artists / Coleytown / Turman-Foster, 1974 Description: Revised Final Shooting script for the 1974 film. Based on the 1950 Lew Archer novel by Ross Macdonald. Private investigator Harper returns in this sequel to the eponymous 1966 film, investigating a blackmail plot in a Louisiana bayou, where he finds himself in between an ex-lover, an oil tycoon, and the local police. In this early draft of the script Paul Newman's character is named Lew Ryan, perhaps evidence that the production did not begin as a direct sequel to "Harper," but simply as an adaptation of the source material.
