What's the story with this script? Is it being doled out every couple of pages? I may not live long enough to get to THE END of this drama just my own!

TC has always said he's a good script writer, and this proves it.

Yes. Easy to visualize. Bogey and Bacall, Sam Neill and Laura Dern, Courtney Vance and Carrie Mulligan.

Fern, this is what Tom wrote in MGM+:

"ThereтАЩs nothing like a really good movie to cure what ails you.

And as a result of this, I have decided to answer the requests of some of the TAFM crowd, and show you the screenplay that sold the first week it was out (and never got made), which I realized watching тАЬTo Catch A ThiefтАЭ was influenced by my love of that movie.

IтАЩm going to present it as a Saturday Afternoon At The Movies Serial.

Coming next: 'Permanent Interests.'"
