David Webb Peoples is the writer behind three of my favorite films of all time: Blade Runner, 12 Monkeys, and Unforgiven. His resume is on the short side compared to some, but his scripts are absolute masterpieces. Blade Runner is considered one of the best sci-fi films of all time, and Unforgiven is at the top of most people’s lists of westerns (if you haven’t seen it or read it, I highly recommend it — it’s an excellent character study for screenwriters.)
