A Raisin in the Sun: the Unfilmed Original Screenplay Lorraine Hansberry

The Unfilmed Original Screenplay of an American classic.

This is a landmark volume of the epic, original film script written by Lorraine Hansberry, adapted from her stage play. But movie audiences did not know that nearly a third of her powerful screenplay had been cut. This edition restores all of these deletions and delivers the screenplay that is true to Hansberry's vision.
