Draft script for the 1996 film, with rainbow revisions. Based on the comic book character created by Chris Warner, first appearing in the 1993 comic "Comic's Greatest World: Steel Harbor," and on the "Barb Wire" series published from 1994 to 1996. Pamela Anderson stars as the titular Barb, a nightclub owner in a fictional coastal California town, "the last free city" in the US, which has been divided by a Second Civil War. When Barb's former lover, now a freedom fighter, arrives at the club asking for help, Barb finds herself thrust onto the political stage. Largely panned by critics upon release, the film has since attracted a cult following. Shot on location in Long Beach, California and Pascagoula, Mississippi. Self wrappers.
