Malibu, CA: Word of Mouth Productions, 1999. Draft script for the 1999 film. Laid in are a collection of documents, two autographed letters from screenwriter and director Tom Lazarus to Jack Murphy, dated February 26, March 5, and March 29, 1991, urging him to please read and consider producing his film. Also included is an autographed note from Morgan Paull of the BDP & Associates Talent Agency to Jack Murphy, simply asking him to "let [him] know." Finally there is a typed biography of Lazarus, with his phone number sans area code in manuscript ink.
