Chinook is an original screenplay about a Vietnam vet with PTSD who meets a World War II vet in a VA Home, and the screenplay takes one afternoon to unfold. This dissertation explains how Chinook came to be, with all of the processes undertaken. It begins with an introduction about the characters in the screenplay and who these characters are based on. There are several books, movies, and articles contained in this section to substantiate the characters, events, and flashbacks of what actually happened in World War II and Vietnam. The best resources were conversations with actual veterans from either war. While these veterans may not be quoted directly, and their specific wartime experience in combat is not used, a pattern of raw courage, being in horrific battles, killing the enemy, and reluctance to relive it all emerges. Lastly is a section on Screenplay Writing which contains information on the correct format a screenplay needs to be in for a director to consider it. The Methods of Working Creatively explains the roles of many people in the field of acting and how certain people were directly responsible in the process of writing and completing Chinook. It explores the success of networking as the only method which worked to get the screenplay in perfect format, theme, and focus. There are two sections on how Chinook is unique, and then what the plan is for the future of the screenplay. The next five sections come directly from the "Beat Sheet," the term and definition arising from networking and finding the perfect person to assist with the writing and formatting of the play so that a director will consider it. The final section of the essay contains a comparison of Chinook with ten other war movies, with how Chinook uses some of the same techniques. This section uses Cinema Verite as the basis for the comparisons of each war movie to Chinook and explores how a few of the movies do not use Cinema Verite. The final section of the dissertation is the original screenplay, Chinook. This dissertation is available in open access at AURA (https://aura.antioch.edu) and OhioLINK ETD Center (https://etd.ohiolink.edu).
