Screenwriters : Overlooked

Overlooked

Am I the only one who thinks screenwriters are overlooked as far as their contributions to movies go? Without a good script their isn't a good movie. The only time a screenwriter is really praised is if they directed the film as well. Other than that not much is said about the screenwriters.

How do you feel about that?

Re: Overlooked

i agree totally, with the exceptions of people like Aaron Sorkin and Charlie Kaufmann.
Cameron Crowe is one of my favourite writers even thoe he is mainly known for his "film making" skills in general.
