Lights, Camera, Action!
Some bright news from the film industry… it looks like Abbey’s The Monkey Wrench Gang may finally make it to the big screen.
It was one of the announcements at the Sundance Film Festival this month.
This makes the third Abbey book that’s been made into a movie. Fire on the Mountain and The Brave Cowboy (Lonesome Are The Brave was the film title) are the other two.
It will be nice to see the gang back in action….

Don’t buy yer tickets yet. I’ve seen MWG get this close to production before and not make it.
If it has any meaningful relationship to “The Gang,” I’ll be mighty surpised.

You may be right…hope you’re wrong!
I think it will make production, because they now have some funding. True to the story? We’ll have to see.
