Watch Amy Schumer, Aaron Sorkin, & More Sit in a Room & Talk Screenwriting

A bunch of smart people in one room talking about something other than politics or Star Wars. Yes please.

For this year's THR Writer Roundtable, Amy Schumer (Trainwreck), Aaron Sorkin (Steve Jobs), Emma Donoghue (Room), Tom McCarthy (Spotlight), Meg LeFauve (Inside Out) and Nick Hornby (Brooklyn) talk about screenwriting — but the conversation doesn't end there. They discuss the nature of new media, journalism in the internet world, the cult of the amateur and their biggest lessons as screenwriters.
