There are a number of websites which have a database of film scripts, which are usually free to read. There are some which claim to have every movie ever made, but it's the more modestly presented sites which actually have the best variety.
The most interesting site, for movie scripts and much else, is probably the Internet Movie Script Database. This has a huge bank of scripts, complete with directions, description etc as well as actual dialogue. As an example, try one of the newest releases, UK film "The Queen." It includes background information as well as the commentary and dialogue that the audience would actually hear.
The site is divided into different genres so you can browse, and there is a further section devoted to the transcripts of TV shows such as Futurama and The Simpsons. Viewer reviews are also encouraged.
