Description

MIRRORMASK tells the story of Helena, a fifteen-year-old girl who works for her family circus, juggling, selling popcorn, and cleaning up muck. While most kids long to run away and join the circus, Helena dreams of running away to the real world. Until the day she wakes up to find herself in a strange new place populated by mysterious creatures -- a dreamworld where she is about to embark on a most amazing journey.

LibraryThing member Crowyhead
The entire screenplay is here (including some scenes and dialog ultimately cut from the film), all illustrated with Dave McKean's deceptively simple storyboard sketches. There are also some lovely stills from the film, as well as backstage photos.

A beautiful, oversized hardcover edition. This is an illustrated screenplay of the film adaptation of Neil Gaiman's novel. A very nice collector's piece.

The movie was brilliant. This book is a good companion with simple, magical artwork and a lovely story.
