Script review - "Rush" by Peter Morgan

Not sure what draft of this I read but it contains a lot less voice over than in the final film. It does lack a little something - I think Morgan never really develops the lead two characters beyond "flashy playboy" and "determined Austrian". No other characters get much of a look in - the girlfriends are just girlfriends, although I did enjoy the Richard Burton cameo. There is some interesting stuff about the importance of having an enemy. And reading it while listening to the Hans Zimmer score was pleasant enough.
