Warner Bros. Making THE MEMORY OF RUNNING
October 7th, 2003
Warner Bros. has acquired screen rights to the Ron McLarty novel T"he Memory of Running", which two weeks ago received a column endorsement from Stephen King, leading to a $2 million Viking Penguin deal.
McLarty wrote the book in 1988 and it's about a 43-year-old, 279-pound assembly line supervisor who grieves the car crash death of his parents by getting on a Raleigh bicycle in his funeral suit and pedaling cross-country.
McLarty will write the script for the film.
