almost daily since 1999

 

Aaron Sorkin, writer of “Sports Night” and a few other little shows and movies you may have heard of, has been brought in to fix the script for “Moneyball.” The movie is based on the book of the same name which tells about the Oakland A’s unconventional approach to creating a competitive team with significantly less money than other baseball franchises. Now you know why I mentioned “Sports Night” instead of “West Wing.” Steven Soderbergh was set to direct and did a rewrite of a script by Steve Zaillian. Sony Pictures execs weren’t satisfied and now the picture has no director but one can hope that the combo of Sorkin and Brad Pitt, who is on board to star, will keep this one alive.
