Producer William Rabbe has tapped screenwriter Barbara Turner to adapt the Charles L. Mee novel “The Ohio Gang” he picked up this past July, for the upcoming production entitled UNSCRUPULOUS.
Logline: Story tells of the 1920s scandal-plagued administration of President Warren G. Harding, who allegedly had extramarital affairs, fathered illegitimate children, and participated in bacchanalian orgies at the “Ohio Gang” green house off of K Street in Washington, D.C.
Logline: In 1936, Ernest Hemingway, already a legend, met novelist and war correspondent Martha Gellhorn in a local bar in Key West. A meeting that would begin their tumultuous romance and subsequent five-year marriage that took them to the Spanish Civil War as Gellhorn stood toe-to-toe with the literary master, putting his famous bravado and iconic style to the test. Gellhorn’s competitive nature inspired the novelist to pen one of its most famous novels, For Whom the Bell Tolls.
