CT has an interview up with Steve Taylor, director of the upcoming Blue Like Jazz movie. Apparently the screen play is finished, with input from Donald Miller, and production starts in May. ETA is the first half of 2009.Among other things, we learn that Taylor's last directing project was The Second Chance, starring Michael W. Smith. (Hmm?) But Taylor wants Tim Keller to make a cameo in the film. (Hmm.) So maybe those two items balance each other out.
My recommendation: Definitely, definitely, definitely read the book first on this one.
I'm still trying to wrap my brain around what exactly a "Blue" movie would look like. Would it be a biography of sorts or maybe an interconnected array of mini scenes ala "Dinner with Friends" hard to say...
