Call Jane (2022) with screenwriter Hayley Schore
Manage episode 356938989 series 3454317
Hello! Welcome to the latest edition of the exclusive audio commentary podcast hosted by me, David Hughes.
For this episode, I’m delighted to be joined by Hayley Schore, co-screenwriter of Call Jane, Carol director Phyllis Nagy’s under-appreciated 2022 film about the "Janes", the underground group that gave Chicago women access to abortions in the pre-Roe v Wade years. Needless to say the film, which stars Elizabeth Banks, Sigourney Weaver, Chris Messina and Kata Mara, took on a horrible new resonance when the Supreme Court effectively overturned Roe v Wade in June 2022.
I really enjoyed Call Jane – which can be found here (UK) and here (US) – but I was particularly struck by the clever construction of the screenplay, which is why I wanted Hayley to walk us through it. If you haven’t seen the film, I urge you to track it down, and then come back and listen to hear how development took shape, and the decisions that informed its gestation across 28 screenplay drafts.
