Script Report: DRIVING MR. ALBERT
August 28th, 2001
Producer Scott Rudin hired veteran biopic scribes Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski to adapt the nonfiction book ``Driving Mr. Albert: A Trip Across America With Einstein's Brain," this according to Variety.
The script will tell the true story of a cross-country road trip taken by the author -- then a freelance journalist with a bad case of writer's block -- and an 84-year-old pathologist, Thomas Harvey, who performed Einstein's autopsy in 1955. Harvey had removed the brain of the renowned scientist and took it home as a sort of souvenir, storing it in a Tupperware bowl filled with formaldehyde.
