In Rewriting Indie Cinema, J. J. Murphy explores alternative forms of scripting and how they have shaped American film from the 1950s to the present. He traces a strain of indie cinema that used improvisation and psychodrama, a therapeutic form of improvised acting based on a performer's own life experiences.

J. J. Murphy is professor of film and Hamel Family Distinguished Chair in Communication Arts at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He is the author of Me and You and Memento and Fargo: How Independent Screenplays Work (2007) and The Black Hole of the Camera: The Films of Andy Warhol (2012).
