Screenplay for Stevie Biopic

[PenguinHead]

While the events in the history and lives of Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks are surely rich fodder for an movie drama, in lesser hands a cinematic rendering could turn out to be really cheesy bad, and look like Spinal Tap. I can't see it being anything more than a sensationalized parody. Fleetwood Mac's legacy would not benefit from it.

I rather have a book about Stevie - but not her own. I don't think we'd get much more than what we already know. It would be written in Stevie's myopic perspective.

Stephen Davis just wrote Carly Simon's biography, with some of Carly's input, but she had no control in what was ultimately published. She was not happy with it because she felt too exposed. Because the author did the work, it was authentic, accurate and academic. I'm looking forward to reading it.

He has written several lauded books about other artists. Led Zeppelin comes to mind. I read an article about him. He emphatically stated several times that he wants to write a book about Stevie. He said his publisher said something to the effect of "no, not yet." The article ended with him saying "But I really want to do a book on Stevie Nicks."

That's the book I want to read. Then a movie might possibly be made...based on that book.
