Colton Harris-Moore

Biopic screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, writer of Milk and the forthcoming J. Edgar, is working on the Barefoot Bandit film about Colton Harris-Moore. Black told Collider:

I’m finishing up The Barefoot Bandit, which is the feature on Colton Harris-Moore. So I’ve been spending a lot of time in Seattle. That’s almost done. And what an amazing kid. There’s so much that people don’t know about him yet. It’s heartbreaking and inspiring. It’s been a very emotional journey for me.

      Also, I really wish to see an article linked here one day, about how he escapes from prison. Or gets busted out by a group of freedom fighters.

      I get the feeling Timothy Leary would love to, too.
