I'd go, but I doubt if he can get the movie made. There are no female characters
and no sex (there are a lot of places where some might be inserted, but then
we'd all flame your uncle), and the viewpoint isn't very Hollywoodish. I'm
afraid all the post-Holocaust movies come out looking like Mad Max.

Don't hold your breath.
