You shouldn't have a problem if your script is well-handled. I mean, Kyle Chandler's character in Nagy's CAROL script was deeply misogynistic. I just don't recommend tweeting at successful people who can potentially influence your career when they're in Rage Mode.I feel like I'm in the same boat. I've read Nagy's Twitter, and I'm afraid that she probably took offence, after giving my screenplay a shallow read.
The screenplay I submitted followed a pick up artist and the people that bought into his bullshit.
I was trying to explore Foucault's idea that all individuals are representatives of larger systems of thought, so no one is really a free agent operating purley on their own volition.
However, if you gave it a shallow read you might think it was sexist at times.
It would be unfair to call Shakespeare anti-semitic. The characters in Merchant of Venice are anti-semitic, but Shakespeare himself was trying to teach us a lesson about prejudice.
