Oscar-Nominated Screenwriters Share Words Of Wisdom

On Monday, February 5th, We co-hosted the 11th Annual Oscar-Nominated Screenwriters Panel with Jeff Goldsmith, the producer of The Q&A With Jeff Goldsmith. Immediately before the event, we sat down with four of the panel’s Oscar-Nominated screenwriters. Kumail Nanjiani (Co-writer, The Big Sick), Aaron Sorkin (Writer, Molly’s Game), Dee Rees (Co-writer, Mudbound), and Virgil Williams (Co-writer, Mudbound).
