Wow, they haven't even struck the answer print for BLOOD WORK
yet and you've already managed to write it and MYSTIC RIVER
off as duds. You must have a great crystal ball.
Whether BW bombs or not (and I'm betting it won't), it will
have little to do with MYSTIC RIVER getting made. If Clint
wants to do something, Warner's will let him do it. As long
as he's drawing breath he'll retain the autonomy he has
enjoyed for 30 years or so. He's his own Hollywood.
