Comments on: Dustin Lance Black To Pen Script For ‘Hoover’ Biopic https://staging2.theplaylist.net/dunstin-lance-black-to-script-for-20100301/ Wed, 11 Nov 2020 23:00:14 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.4 By: Alex https://staging2.theplaylist.net/dunstin-lance-black-to-script-for-20100301/#comment-16981 Tue, 02 Mar 2010 04:17:24 +0000 http://theplaylist.wpengine.com/?p=4423#comment-16981 What ATM said. I assume the only reason that people fawn over his uninspired work on Milk is because they conflate criticism of the film with homophobia.

Unless there are heavy rewrites by others, count me out for this future big screen made for TV movie.

His script for Milk was bland biopic by numbers and left out a lot of of the more interesting aspects of the guy. I'm terribly afraid of what he'll do to Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Probably make it look like the "Movie of the Week"…Wolfe's work is a classic and they gave it to him to DLB???? Nothing against the guy, but he needs to go back to TV like Big Love. Nothing against the guy, and I know he has his Oscar, but I don't think writing features is his strong suit.

His Hoover will probably be an over-the-top queen who bears little resemblance to the "real" Hoover.

Two paronoid fuckers going toe to toe over political power. There's a great story to be written there. All the salcious cross dressing is old news.
