Screenplays refer to characters using different names, pronouns, and nominal expressions. We need to resolve these mentions tothe correct referent character for better story understanding and holistic research in computational narratology. Coreference resolution of character mentions in screenplays becomeschallenging because of the large document lengths, unique structural features like scene headers, interleaving of action and speechpassages, and reliance on the accompanying video. In this work, we first adapt widely used annotation guidelines to address domain-specific issues in screenplays. We develop an automatic screenplay parser to extract thestructural information and design coreference rules based upon the structure. Our model exploits these structural features and outperforms a benchmark coreference model on thescreenplay coreference resolution task.
