A feature length script for the movie can be found on the internet. It is actually not the script written for the film, but a new version created by Hamann years later and fleshed out from the existing footage on the internet. The actual script is only 40 pages long and a lot of the film was improvised by the actors. Tarantino has said the feature script online isn't his movie and he wishes his name wasn't on it. Hamann has said it follows the blueprint him and Tarantino established.
