Writers Guild and Studios Reach Deal to End Their Strike

The Writers Guild of America got most of what it wanted. With actors still on picket lines, however, much of Hollywood will remain shut down.

The company’s DVD subscription service is ending this month, bringing to a close an origin story that ultimately upended the entertainment industry.

The movies we watch can serve as place holders for a cache of memories, who we were and how we felt at particular moments in time.

A third straight day of bargaining between the studios and the union ended without an agreement. Talks will continue on Saturday.

The stalemate is in its fifth month, and talks between the union and the Hollywood studios resumed for the first time since August.
