She's Not Given the Credit Where Credit Is Due

Helen Childress said in 2019 quote I have worked consistently and constantly for 29 years they estimated she's written 40 screenplays since reality bites. Of the handful she wrote on spagged half were sold or optioned most of them feature female protagonists. She made this movie that ended up being this like cult classic but Ben Stiller hasn't had trouble directing more movies right? And yeah she's not given the credit where credit is due for telling her own story.
