Title The Mircale Life of Edgar Mint
Starring
?
Director
Michael Cuesta http://www.imdb.com/name/
nm0191147/
Producer Michael Stipe, Sandy Stern
Synopsis The Miracle Life of Edgar Mint to film soon in New Mexico.__A half-Apache youth is badly injured when he is run over by a mail truck. Shipped to a hospital, he begins a new life that eventually lands him with a Mormon foster family. Here's a synopsis of the book, written by Brady Udall: "In the spirit of John Irving and Anne Tyler, but with an endearing soul all its own, Brady Udall's The Miracle Life of Edgar Mint enters the reader's heart from the very first page and makes an unforgettable impression. At the beginning of this high-spirited and inexhaustibly inventive novel of the American West, a seven-year-old boy on an Apache Indian reservation in Arizona has his head run over by a mail truck. Nevertheless, The Miracle Life of Edgar Mint is anything but tragic -- or, at least, not purely tragic. For not only does Edgar survive the accident -- along with a hellish Indian boarding school, a wildly dysfunctional Mormon foster family, and the loss of most of the illusions that make most people's lives bearable -- he maintains his innate goodness and his belief in the redeeming power of language. The result is a miracle of storytelling, bursting with heartache and hilarity and inhabited by characters as outsized as the landscape of the American West."
