to the notion of adapting stories to the screen, I would like
to know what stories or novels of years past members of this
group think should have been filmed or would make good movies
now. In particular I'm thinking of more obscure properties
that might likely be available for option rather than the
latest John Grisham.
*********** I took a quick look at the bookshelf last night
and came up with MOONY'S ROAD TO HELL, IGUANA LOVE, and GOD
IS A BULLET. But probably the number one
ready-for-the-silver-screen is Terrill Lankford's SHOOTERS.
It's got it all. Hot, steamy sex, a shadowy past, seedy
characters, hip Hollywood parties, and a tense, desperate
struggle against a frame-up. Written by a talented and
experienced Hollywood screenwriter, what else would you
expect?
I am sorry about your wife, Jim. My thoughts are with you and
her.
