    I hope it doesn't have John Travolta in it. One I would like to be filmed is Freaky Deaky, an old favorite of mine. I would put it on a par with The Moonshine War in the Leonard canon. And Stick, and The Switch, lots of fine stuff that would work as movies. Richard Moore has the theory that starting early, Leonard wrote his books thinking of the movies, and I think he's right. A character like Stick is a natural for the movies.

    Best,
