Screenwriters bear the weighty responsibility of researching the story, crafting the narrative, and delivering the script, complete with screenplay and dialogues, in the specified format to development executives. This process endows them with significant influence over the creative direction and emotional resonance of the screenplay, thereby shaping the ultimate impact of the finished film.
