Flaxseed Oil: The Movie


Word that HBO will do a movie based on the book, "Game of Shadows," is timely. With Barry Bonds under federal indictment, a new final chapter must be written into the best-seller by San Francisco Chronicle staffers Lance Williams and Mark Fainaru-Wada (now of ESPN). The legal twist gives instant life to a move script (more salacious details!) even though we know the main allegations and saw Bonds eclipse Henry Aaron's home run record this summer. Reports indicate the script co-writers selected for the project also did "Tin Cup." One line from that romantic comedy has potential for the newest effort. But a really important question: Who will be cast as Victor Conte?
