Screenwriter behind two Oscar hopefuls opens up about new period of his profession

Justin Kuritzkes is the screenwriter for "Queer" and "Challengers," two wildly completely different movies that share plots that includes intense emotional journeys. Both movies have garnered awards buzz and are Oscar hopefuls. Kuritzkes opened as much as Dana Jacobson about what it is like seeing his work on the large display screen after years as a playwright and creator.

"CBS Saturday Morning" co-hosts Michelle Miller and Dana Jacobson ship two hours of unique reporting and breaking information, in addition to profiles of main figures in tradition and the humanities. Watch "CBS Saturday Morning" at 7 a.m. ET on CBS and eight a.m. ET on the CBS News app.
