Milton's Paradise Lost
“What Milton had that Collier hasn't is a sense of sin, and the overwhelming power and beauty of divine order. What Collier has that Milton hadn't is a sense of humor and a delight in the variety of chaos.” (Time 1973)
British-born author and screenplay writer, John Collier, retells Milton's Paradise Lost with his incomparable flare for imagery and a vision of the story as it might be seen on film. Although his script reads like a book, we can picture it all – satan flying through space, monstrous fiends, other worlds, devils and angels. John Collier was intrigued by the possibility of turning Paradise Lost into a film for years and his screenplay contains the basic blueprint for Milton's story as well as new food for thought. Monstrously delicious and impeccably structured, a fascinating journey of a read.
