The Golden Suicides
The 'East Village Suicides' or 'Golden Suicides' project that we've mentioned previously has been picked up and has added Gus Van Sant as a writer along with Ellis. Its not entirely clear (to me), but it appears the screenplay will be based on this Vanity Fair article about them. [thanks to James and Marty Beckerman for the heads up]

New Ellis Screenplay Based on Duncan/Blake Suicides
A new screenplay is coming from Bret based on...
Theresa Duncan and Jeremy Blake, the inseparable East Village artists who killed themselves last year believing they were being persecuted.
I'm not sure what this means for the timing of Imperial Bedrooms, but this sounds like it could make for an interesting film.
"It's a kind of modern Romeo and Juliet story, set in the East Village, with the addition of anti-Bush conspiracy theories and Scientologists," says Sales. "They continue to be the subject of fascination precisely because no one knows exactly why they did it. We only know that they were deeply in love, which makes their suicides all the more mysterious."
