Deadline:
On the heels of its U.S. release last week to great reviews, Richard House’s political conspiracy thriller novel The Kills is headed to television as a drama series for Starz and the BBC produced by Colin Callender’s Playground. The Kills, which was optioned by Playground, centers on the global manhunt for a British mercenary who goes on the run after stealing $50 million from an American reconstruction project in Iraq. Search is underway for a writer to adapt the literarythekills property, which has a rather unusual structure. The Kills, longlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2013 and nominated for a Sky Arts Award, was originally published in the U.S. as four separate interconnecting books, while in the U.S. the quartet of books came out as a single volume. Book 1, titled Sutler, chronicles the manhunt at the center of the plot.

Mother of the Bride Review: This movie is an embarassingly silly and crigny watch with no soul or substance.
The Guardian Of The Monarchs Review: This documentary evokes a profound sense of sadness as it sheds light on the shortcomings of investigations and raises crucial concerns regarding the perils confronting environmental defenders.
At least if it's on BBC I'll get a chance to watch it if it's good.
