A Beatle, a "Crazy Horse" and other film creatures

The San Sebastian Film festival offers a fair feat for real movie buffs, ad the above link will attest. The mention of a Scorcese- helmed biopic on former Beatle, the late George Harrison, brought to mind the Bob Marley biopic that Marty was set to direct, beforevthe project passed to Johnathan Demme (Philadelphia) and then the Weinstein Co. apparently reached a deal with Rita Marley ( Bob's widow) for the rights to her memoirs.

Will a Marley movie be made -and released - in my lifetime? Remains to be seen.
