This is the first book to critically examine the recruitment and
working practices of screenwriters. Drawing on interviews with
screenwriters and those that employ them, Natalie Wreyford provides
a deep and detailed understanding of entrenched gender inequality
in the UK film industry and answers the question: what is
preventing women from working as screenwriters? She considers how
socialised recruitment and gendered taste result in exclusion, and
uncovers subtle forms of sexism that cause women's stories and
voices to be discounted. Gender Inequality in Screenwriting Work
also reveals the hidden labour market of the UK film industry,
built on personal connections, homophily and the myth of
meritocracy. It is essential reading for students and scholars of
gender, creative industries, film and cultural studies, as well as
anyone who wants to understand why women remain excluded from many
key roles in filmmaking.
