Hey, remember that
article in the March issue of
Atlantic Monthly by Lori Gottlieb? The one called "Marry Him! The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough"? Warner Independent Films and Maguire Entertainment — as in
Tobey Maguire —
have acquired both the article and book rights. Tobey, aka Spiderman, plans to produce a
film based on that damn piece. Gottlieb, an NPR commentator, is a 40-year old single mother who conceived her baby through donor sperm. So! What the hell kind of movie does "Tobes" plan to make? A drama? A satire? A comedy? A wacky single mom comedy? Why are we so scared? [
