Tony, I like it. How about this?

"This summer, Helen Keller hits the mean streets in 'Deaf, Dumb, and Blink Justice'".

@Darren: That's the spirit. How about:

"He tried non-violence. Now he's pissed! This summer in 'Ghandi: Vengeance is Mine!"

@Tony: Of course, I meant, "Deaf, Dumb, and Blind Justice." Not "Blink Justice." Although I like that as a rock band's name.

My writing partner and I just spat out a few of these when we heard about Da Vinci:

When a terrorist threatens to blow up the Ecole Normale Superieure, only Michel Foucault and his crazy gay bathhouse friends have what it takes to stop him.

Many suspect that Truman Capote secretly wrote To Kill A Mockingbird--but few know that he did so because Harper Lee was busy tracking down the serial rapist stalking the wives of Alabama's most prominent businessmen.

Only painter-by-day, P.I.-by-night Mark Rothko can make out the fine distinctions in a murder scene that's a color field of blood and gore.

A fellow writer on another board had a story revolving around a young Sir Francis Scott a captain, privateer and politician of the Elizabethan era.

Scott is a char that pops up in movies about Elizabeth I.

I thought it was a good idea & wondered why more people didn't take a historial person & update them for a younger audience.

I've also read that Christopher Marlowe was a spy & there were rumors his death had something to do with that business. Surprised no one has done a movie about this (that I know of).
