But it is not at all unthinkable for anyone to tell a writer how to write. It comes with the territory.

Pictures are written, acted, directed, photo­graphed, edited, scored and all that. The screenwriter determines what scenes are in and what scenes are out decides whether that bit of information is dramatized or just referred to whether it takes place on or off screen. There are millions of decisions made by the screenwriter.
