One of Goodis's novels is a novelisation of an unproduced
script he wrote. I forget which one. One of those beginning
with 'Of', I think.
All the talk of Charles Williams' abundant talent is great to
hear, and I completely agree. Malcolm Braly is up there too.
As is David Karp.

It's not hb, and likely as not somebody on this

somewhere has already said it, but Ian
Fleming's
THUNDERBALL is a novelization of the script and
I
think it's much better than the movie.
