Okay, there’s little chance I could get the Geico caveman, Katy Perry, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba, Lady Gaga, or Paris Hilton to appear in my adaptation of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but I can dream.

Also, I can’t go around calling myself Steven Louis Robertson, much less Robert Louis Stevenson either.But I got an idea of how I might go about getting my project completed.

The British triumverate of Adrian Bliss, Ben Robbins and Tony Stubbs have decided to make a movie out of Jules Verne’s 1896 novel “Clovis Dardentor” a story about two friends who try to get adopted by a wealthy man.

For those three blokes, the wealthy man is everybody in cyberspace. They are  trying to get their movie adopted by everyone on the internet. They’ve set up a website www.buyacredit.com

which sells credits for $10 a name. So far, Jude Law has signed on. They are also selling advertising space. I know I bought a credit.

They need two million dollars and already have raised $150,000.I have no idea how legitimate the whole thing is, but I have to admire their ingenuity.
