The awards season’s narrative has been the “year of the women,” as female filmmakers, screenwriters and artisans have been making strong cases for nominations at the Oscars in categories like best picture and director. The Writers Guild of America Awards, however, might have missed the memo, only nominating four women over two films: Emerald Fennell for “Promising Young Woman” and Jena Friedman, Erica Rivinoja and Nina Pedrad, three co-writers from “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm.”
In the three categories for original, adapted and documentary feature, 31 total screenwriters were nominated, four of which are women, and three come from the same feature film.

Farewell, J.J.
Regarding “J.J. Watt’s Texans tenure” (Feb. 12): I heard J.J. Watt’s farewell to Houston. He was the heart and the soul of the Texans. Of course that means the Texans no longer have a heart or a soul. The McNairs better get used to the fact that they’re going to have to sell the team or face a boycott by the fans.
