'Scriptnotes NOTES' Ep 2 - 'Friends, Property, and Other Romantic Designations'


Listen Later

Welcome to Scriptnotes NOTES: the first in a series of Pomonok NOTES podcasts where host Teresa Jusino will delve into the craft and career of screenwriting through the lens of a queer, neurodivergent, Jewish Latina grappling with what she's learned from two of her industry role models -- John August and Craig Mazin of the Scriptnotes podcast.


Episode 2 is called Friends, Property, and Other Romantic Designations, because too many films and TV shows prioritize romantic relationships over friendship while treating those in romantic relationships like property or animals. She dips back into Scriptnotes #697 to talk about Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene’ before jumping over to Scriptnotes #313 to talk about whether men and women can be friends (SPOILER ALERT: they can) and how screenwriters have the power to create cultural debates and dispel them.
