Top 10 Legendary Screenwriters

Craig Mazin, screenwriter and correspondent for AskMen.com, recently compiled his Top 10 list of "legendary" Hollywood screenwriters. His choices were:

1. Billy Wilder
2. Ernest Lehman
3. Oliver Stone
4. Woody Allen
5. Ben Hecht
6. Francis Ford Coppola
7. David Mamet
8. Paul Schrader
9. William Goldman
10. Robert Benton.

Here are a couple of my favorites who didn't make Mazin's list:

Robert Riskin, writer of "Mister Deeds Goes to Town" and "It Happened One Night," and

Paddy Chayefsky, winner of three best screenplay Oscars for "Marty," "The Hospital" and "Network."

But what about you? Who would be on your list of the top 10 Hollywood screenwriters?

Thanks for the post. Unfortunately I won't make anyone's top list. At the moment I'm a freelance whore biggrin I am writing for any website that will take my work. I am not complaining, it is constant.
