Fox Searchlight Take a Liking to Van Sant’s ‘Kool-Aid’
Fataculture — After having been attached to the finance-less project since last year, Fataculture favourite Gus Van Sant and writer of his upcoming “Milk” (which premieres tonight in San Francisco) Dustin Lance Black’s take on Tom Wolfe’s 1968 book “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test,” might see the light of day after all, thank the Pope. Fox Searchlight have picked up the film that is set to chronicle Ken Kessey’s cross-country, um, trip alongside the Merry Pranksters in their DayGlo school bus, as high as the clouds. Can’t wait to join them, in theory anyway. [ THR via LiC ]
