our attaching significant stars. we have reached out to these stars and had the following actors ask for offers: daniel radcliffe, jesse eisenberg, imogen poots, sienna miller, dan stevens, jeff goldblum, stephen baldwin, michael pitt, michiel huisman, etc etc. we're talking to guy ritchie to direct.

The problem? if we get these stars on board and the investment guy turns out not to be legit, we as film-makers will be blackballed forevermore. caa, gersh, icm, all these places are a small, backbiting club. on the other hand, if the dude is legit, we are meelionaires, and the film is awesome, etc.

What I need from you: posing as agents on behalf of the film, you will throw yourselves into the volcano. The agents will then blame *you if the **** goes south. what do you care, you're already incinerated. :) on the other hand, if it's good then you make a million bucks, easy.

Because I find it hard to believe that someone has offered a hundred million for a first time project from people with no track record.

I have a couple of producers on board, and I'm meeting with Paramount next week. The contact with this investor comes through an actress I met at Sundance. These other producers might conceivably finance the movie, but this guy also is an attractive option.

You know the novelist/scriptwriter always gets f**ked over, don't you? From The Last Tycoon, through Barton Fink to The Player, it never goes well for the writers. :-(

Although Michael Crichton might disagree, I suppose.

You may inform your backers that you have secured a cheaper version of Colin Farrell.

Your success is guaranteed. Beer and hookers my friend, beer and hookers.

To be honest, I was waiting for a somewhat more technical assessment of his works.

Not that I know the first thing about it, of course.

Revolver and Rocknrolla were both excellent, imo.
