I believe "Dreamgirl, My Life As A Supreme" will be made into a motion picture. It is a story that should be told and what a story it is!!!! Thank you Mary Wilson!

I'd be surprised if this movie ever gets made. Even though Jobete has been sold, I wouldn't be surprised if Berry kept some sort of approval clause over certain uses of the copyrights.

Plus dont you have to get someone's permission to use their name and/or likeness in a film? I doubt Diana would give her ok to this project.

Hey Reese!

I was just thinking that very same thing...Diana will do everything in her power to keep this movie from being made.

I think Mary Wilson's book should become a movie; like everyone else, she has a right!!

Look what happened with Phil Spector, he F*** everyone and even himself!!

Ronnie Spector's book is back out in paperback.
New cover with some different photos and a new
updated chapter/discography. Reasonably priced
at $6.99. It can also be ordered from her

What's happened since her book was first published
in 1990. She talks about performing before the
president (Clinton) and things like that. There
is also an updated discography. She says a little
about the Phil Spector tragedy where that B movie
actress was shot in his home.

I imagine she mentions winning and then losing that lawuit with Estelle and Nedra for more royalties.

Gee I don't know...wouldn't this movie stir up a controversy? It would be interesting, however! :-)
