The movie could either appear in theaters or be a made-for-television special.<\/p>\n<p>Farrell and Bender would produce any project in conjunction with their respective partners, Marvin Minoff and Kevin Brown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe story is almost Shakespearean in the warring of the families and the great love story between the (couple),\u201d Minoff told Daily Variety. \u201cIt starts off so beautifully and then ends so chaotically.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The producers don\u2019t plan to hire a writer to work up the script for the movie until they can sell the project to a television network or film studio to finance the effort. The have indicated they plan to start the movie with the beginning of Terri and Michael\u2019s relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Farrell is a former \u201cM*A*S*H*\u201d actor who stared in several movies after the famous television series and produced the movie Patch Adams about a doctor who used humor to help in treating patients.<\/p>\n<p>Lawrence Bender is a longtime movie producer and was behind such films as The Great Raid, Havana Nights, Kill Bill, Good Will Hunting and Pulp Fiction.<\/p>\n<p>Any movie based on Michael\u2019s book will almost undoubtedly tell just one side of the controversial story surrounding Terri and Michael\u2019s attempts to kill her.<\/p>\n<p>Michael\u2019s book presents a one-sided view on allegations that his physically abused Terri and waited to call 911 after her collapse, about his failure to follow court instructions while serving as Terri\u2019s guardian, and his ill treatment of Terri\u2019s family and preventing them from being present when their daughter died after the painful 13 day starvation and dehydration death.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mark my words, the \u201cright\u201d to die is where it\u2019s going to be at in Primetime this year.
