Title: Rising Sun (film)
Content:  Michael Crichton was paid $1 million for the filming rights of his novel, and was also attached to write the screenplay alongside Michael Backes. After delivering a faithful draft, studio 20th Century Fox asked for a rewrite. Crichton then entered disputes with director Philip Kaufman, who asked for five separate rewrites of the script’s first 40 pages and decided to turn Web Smith into an African-American, which led to him departing the project. Kaufman wound up taking the writing duties, with David Mamet also delivering a draft. Kaufman tried to get a sole screenwriter credit, but the Writer's Guild arbitration decided that his contributions were not enough to deny a credit to Crichton and Backes. Given Kaufman had a tendency for long movies, Fox made him contractually obligated to deliver a two hour length film, with editing delays pushing the film's release date forward. Rising Sun was filmed entirely in Los Angeles, California.

Although a script was completed, Myles felt it needed improvement, and passed the book on to Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais, hoping that they would suggest a more experienced writer.

Title: Michael Cimino's unrealized projects
Content:  In September 1982, Cimino approached Raymond Carver and Tess Gallagher to re-write a screenplay based on the life of Fyodor Dostoevsky. According to Carver, Cimino presented him an existing screenplay with no author credit, commissioned by the veteran Italian film producer, Carlo Ponti. The first draft had been written by a Russian writer, and then translated to English by two Italian writers. Carver and Gallagher opted to re-write the entire script, delivering a 220-page draft to Cimino in November 1982.
