A bit ago, I got this message from Glenn Porter, Would you like to have the script for I Melt With You, a script I wrote based on an idea I hatched with Mark Pellington? It was produced last summer and is premiering at Sundance ’11. The reason I ask is that I have used your excellent site many times over the last few years for reference, and thought that maybe someone somewhere might want to read [I Melt With You]. Let me know at your convenience and I hope this finds you well.
Well, heck ya I want to read it. Thanks Glenn!
