A Ring-a Ding-Ding

As I wrap up me new script and prepare for my "Vultures" bow, I got to thinking about what would be an ultimate "dream project" for me to work on. James Bond and any number of crime epics spring to mind, but the one that would truly allow me to die almost completely satisfied would be something just as obvious: A Rat Pack movie. it's been done on telly, with Ray Liotta as Sinatra, but imagine a bigscreen, full-blown movie event that could be made of these blokes. The next book I intend to pick up is "Rat Pack Confidential", as apparently it has it all about them, and I'd love to take a crack at a swaggering, epic look at a small group of men who lived life to the full and how they played a part through an explosive political time in the world. It has it all: style, romance, comedy, a dazzling location, political intrigue, high drama, racial struggles, the Mob, and heartbreak. And, of course, the fucking songs............Anyone have ninety mill in their back pockets? Fuck the recession, it'd be some craic.....
