Double Harness--Screenplay by Jane Murfin

It was not unusual in the early decades of film making for screenwriters to be women.  That became unusual later  in the century and even now it's still quite rare for a woman to write a movie that's produced.  They're writing them.  I wrote them.  Hollywood doesn't want that kind of product now.


Jane Murfin was very talented, wrote for stage and screen and wrote and produced movies starring her dog Strongheart.  She wrote many notable films including 1932's What Price Hollywood starring Constance Bennett, Neil Hamilton and Lowell Sherman (also multi-talented.)
