Detail of this version of the script from historical resources. Shooting script August 21,1981. Produced by Steven Spielberg & Kathleen Kennedy and directed by Steven Spielberg.

The film began shooting in September 1981, filming under the cover name A Boy's Life, as Spielberg did not want anyone to discover and plagiarize the plot. The actors had to agree to read the script behind closed doors, and everyone on set had to wear an ID card. 113 pages, original printed wrappers. A copy of the shooting script, dated Aug 21, 1981, but a reproduction of an original (originals are known to have the revision pages on colored paper which are not here nor are the their colored watermark stamps characteristic of Spielberg/Lucas scripts). Still a studio produced example of the original working script for the classic film. The film was shot mostly in cronological order to produce as convincing an emotional development as possible. The shoot completed in 61 days (4 days ahead of schedule). The film won four Oscars, and was nominated for Best Picture.
