Florence Ballard bio-pic to be made....

[marv2]

Like someone else said, I have not seen the buzz around a proposed movie go silent so quick. Nobody is talking about a Flo Ballard movie but a few mouths on the forum.
They are the only ones keeping this dream alive. At this point, Florence Ballard is forgotten. Teens and 20-somethings don't care about her, Diana Ross or Mary Wilson. And Rob, don't take the bait. his thread would die if certain people didn't keep it alive.

It is almost embarassing to hear you say something as dry and uninformed as that! Does this look like just a few mouths on this forum? You better wake up~!

Internet postings mean nothing to me. There's not one post from a legitimate media newspaper or magazine on a Florence Ballard movie. Bloggers steal from other bloggers. Marv2 ought to know, he certainly steals. Faith Evans.com is not a legitimate news source. I can post a thread saying I'm Jesus Christ and put it on Google or the Net, but it doesn't make it so. Like Ii said, don't believe the hype. These loonies can only keep this thread going for themselves.

Absolutely correct, I'll put my trust in Faux news and the papers with Dewey Deafeats Truman headlines.

When i see something about a Flo Ballard movie in Variety, Entertainment Weekly, Billboard or Premiere Magazine - credible news sources - only then will believe it. Daily Variety and Variety have covered the entertainment and motion picture industry for years. There hasn't been any mention of a Flo Ballard movie in them. Can you not present one shred of factual or credible information - like which studio or production company is making this alleged film - from a legit news source, and not your co-zany JillFoster or some internet blog written by some fan who can't spell or punctuate?

Is Miss Faith Evans not a credible source?

I am sure Miss Evans and her people know what studio, production company, screenwriter, director, book sources, interviews, - etc, etc, etc.

Look here's the deal. Any of the people here questioning whether this film on the life of Florence Ballard will ever materialize actually are against any such a film. They are lying if they say that is not the truth. They are afraid that Diana Ross will be made to look bad. Now this is the truth. They fail to realize that this story is already out in the public and has been for decades now. What's done, is done. I have yet to see a public relations campaign by Ross or anyone else to refute what the public already believes and if you think you can change the public's mind about her after all these years [[without distorting the facts), you are a fool.

The film is about Florence, not Diane and Berry, although both played key, pivotal roles in the life of Ms. Ballard. They cannot help themselves when it comes to arguing with anyone that would like to see this film make it to the screen. It doesn't matter what you do or you say [[as the song goes), there is going to be a film [[one day!). If you are against the making of "The Florence Ballard Story" then just don't go to see it.

This all reminds me of the childrens Christmas cartoon "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". In the program, the Grinch [[Boris Karloff) makes the declaration "I Must Stop Christmas From Coming....." he tried his darnest to stop it, but it came anyway and he had to learn to accept it. That's what some folks are going to have to do regarding this film.

If Faith Evans knows what studio will bankroll her film and who will direct her and pen her script, she's certainly keeping this information close to her ches. With filming supposedly beginning in January, it seems to me such pertinent details would be in place and shared with the legitimate media. Again, show me an article from Variety, The Detroit News or the Atlanta Constitution Journal about Atlanta resident Faith Evans starring in a film about Florence Ballard. With filming sceduled to begin in Atlanta in January, there should be ads in the local papers for film crews, electricians, set decorators, etc. Where is that stuff? There's not even a title for this proposed film. It's not the "Florence Ballard Story." I'm waiting for something factual from something credible.
