Writing (Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium) - Elaine May, Warren Beatty
The Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay is the Academy Award for the best screenplay adapted from previously established material. The most frequently adapted media are novels, but other adapted narrative formats include stage plays, musicals, short stories, TV series, and other films and film characters.
Yet their scripts were nominated in the Adapted Screenplay category because they were based on books - the last one being a play. Coming round to " Before Midnight ". Being a sequel (based on already published/produced material), the Academy naturally casts it into the Adapted Screenplay section.
