Darren Star Working on Anita Bryant Bio for HBO

"Sex and the City" creator Darren Star
is on board to direct the film, which is being written by "Runaway" creator Chad Hodge. Star also is executive producing with Dennis Erdman.
"She is a fascinating person on every single level," said Hodge, who has a connection to Bryant -- they both attended Northwestern University. "The twists and turns of her life are incredible."
Bryant wreaked havoc on gays for 20 years! In the late 1970's she launched a crusade to repeal a new Miami-Dade County ordinance prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.
"As a mother, I know that homosexuals cannot biologically reproduce children; therefore, they must recruit our children," she said. Her Save Our Children coalition got the new law overturned within a year, and it took 20 years for it to be reinstated.
In recent years Bryant filed bankruptcy. Hodge, who hopes to talk with Bryant about the project, said he is aiming for a nuanced portrayal of her and "what drove her to do the things that she did."
I hope she does not make a dime of this project.
