Abstract
When adapting a memoir or life story for television and film, the screenwriter is not required to follow a straight-line telling of the story but must stay true to the core meaning of the original experience. In the creation of an adaptation, screenwriters use artistic license for dramatic effect and character development within a time constraint.
