Thanks to Russell for the heads up on the screenplay of A Wizard of Earthsea. A while back, SciFi Channel took a stab at it and failed miserably. Behold for your reading pleasure, what it could have been – an undated, unspecified and unfortunately unused draft of A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. LeGuin and director Michael Powell, which might have been the greatest fantasy film ever made with Sir Ralph Richardson playing the dragon.

Tottle over to the TV Scripts page.
