“It was a very cool concept. It’s form of odd that it acquired scrapped. These films don’t appear to ever get scrapped, but it surely did. We acquired down the street, we have been gonna shoot it. I believe there was a begin date. I had conferences with Channing, we had a director, then we didn’t, however I had a number of conferences with Channing and the opposite producers. They wished to do, like, a ’30s form of screwball romantic comedy set in that world, which might have been actually enjoyable.”
