Abstract:
This thesis argues that screenplays have, throughout their history, been overlooked, undervalued, and misrepresented in ways that obscure them as works of creative writing. Restoring writing and creativity to the definition and analysis of screenplays, against metaphors that reduce them to industrial or technical documents, the thesis also contends with discourses that nominate screenwriting a lesser kind of writing than literary writing, writing that is not meant to be read; a formulaic mode of writing without agency, voice, complexity, or distinctiveness; a fixed and limited writing that is

This thesis analyzes the screenplays written by Canadian experimental poet bpNichol for the Jim Henson produced children’s television program Fraggle Rock between 1982 and 1986. Nichol’s Fraggle Rock writing represents a moment in his multi-genre oeuvre at which to observe his poetics and creative philosophies on display in a popular cultural setting. The ludic poetics exhibited in both the form and narratives of the screenplays display the ways in which playful engagement with language may create interactive communities of play.

CHUTZPAH is a romantic movie set in Manhattan. The events surrounding the death of a wealthy eccentric cumulate into a farcical search for the old man's fortune when it is stolen shortly after his funeral. Ellen, the protagonist, hires a detective to find out who stole her grandfather's money (a substantial sum of which was willed to her). As Mark, the detective, works on the case, a relationship between him and Ellen develops, and the search for the money becomes secondary. Ellen's charm and her relationship with her zany Yiddish relatives endear her to Mark while they together find chutzpah

It is a structure applicable to poetry, psychoanalysis and film, and it is through Pinter's screenplays that this approach is made. Using previously unpublished materia

Hench, by being set in the espionage genre, and following the henchman of an evil villain, offers a commentary on the modern working world by serving as a metaphor for the corporate workplace. The film follows a lowly henchman, Hank, who learns to challenge this corporate structure by achieving self-respect, thanks to an unlikely friendship with a James-Bond-esque agent. This creative explication explains how Hench achieves commentary on how large corporate structures operate to maintain control over employees, and the effects this has on individuals.

This thesis looks at selections of Harold Pinter's work across multiple media: written dramatic texts, screenplays and poetry, activity in theatrical and film production and his political activism.

However, approaches to Pinter to date remain overly focused on representation and hermeneutics and tied to a decidedly idealist conception of being, perception and knowledge.
