"IDOLS EYE" Great story, my name is Don Herion, I worked 46 years in Chicago & Cook County as a Chicago Police Sergeant and Commander of a Vice Unit for the Cook County Sheriff Michael Sheehan. 40 of those years were working on Organized Crime. I wrote 2 books about my experiences with the Chicago outfit "Mob," and had the pleasure of busting some of the burglars and killers in "IDOLS EYE>" The titles of my books are "PAY QUIT OR DIE" and "THE CHICAGO WAY," Chapter 16 of "PAY QUIT OR DIE" tells the facts of who was murdered and how their throats were all cut from ear to ear as well as other mean things. I have been a Police Ad-visor on numerous films shot in Chicago, the last being "Public Enemies" with Michael Mann.

Last Sunday night I was in a Barnes and Noble and someone was asking for Boston Teran\’s THE CREED OF VIOLENCE. The guys behind the counter started talking about the book and how Brad Pitt is signed to star in the Universal movie.

Does anyone know anything about that?

Saw on the previous blog Todd Field is casting Creed of Violence. Anyone know what actors they\’re talking about for the leads? Also, check this out – Suko95 writes on blogspot: “In GARDENS OF GRIEF which is a short, pithy work of historical fiction, the latest novel in The Creed of Violence series, the story revolves around John Lourdes, a Mexican-American agent who is sent to Constantinople by the U.S. to help an Armenian priest, Malek, travel safely across the war-ravaged Ottoman Empire.\” She also blogs: \”gorgeous Kim Kardashian may star in the movie.\” Anyone heard anything? Is Todd Field involved with this too?

Field is one of the most interesting American filmmakers working today. He’s only made two films, but both are classics. I hope he makes many more. However, it appears he might be a bit reclusive.

Whichever film Field makes I will be excited to see it. In the Bedroom and Little Children are two films that stay with me to this day. In an age where capes and super heros seem to be the only thing on the menu, it’s nice to know someone like Field really exists. Please hurry though! There are hungry movie-goers waiting for something real to chew on!

From what i understand and what I\’ve heard, friend #2 is essentially correct. It\’s just been turned it, so yeah, it very well could be next.

A friend of mine who, until recently, worked for Rudin, told me that Field had spent the last two years living in Texas very near McCarthy. He said it was understood that the two were writing the script together. He also said that the Franco rumor was just that – a rumor. One propagated by Franco and his people as yet another piece of \”performance art.\” However, another friend who is an assistant at one of the big agencies insists that Field is in the process of preparing Creed of Violence and talking to some of their actors. I just hope one of them is right. Field is too important a filmmaker to make us wait this long.
