Scott Rudin just wants ‘Glory’

April 14, 2008

Scott Rudin might soon be taking another stab at glory by adapting the high-society memoir “Oh the Glory of It All” for the screen. Miramax has the inside track as the most likely production partner.

Sean Wilsey’s book chronicles his time growing up amid the 1980s San Francisco elite. The cast of characters who raised Wilsey seem to have jumped straight out of a John Irving novel: a drama-prone globetrotting mother who asks her son to commit suicide with her, a distant father who enjoys unnecessary helicopter rides, and a truly wicked stepmother. The book tracks his journey from the dubious role models to a tour of boarding schools and an Italian “therapeutic community.”
