Dermot Mulroney! RUN FOR HER LIFE!

Okay, this film sounds nothing but trashy and possibly could direct-to-DVD (or maybe even video; it sounds just that horrible), but I had to share this comedy with you.  From "The Hollywood Reporter":

 

Dermot Mulroney will star in the organ-harvesting thriller "Run for Her Life" for producer-financier 26 Films.

 

Someone wrote that in a press-release and God-bless whoever it was.  They understood how bad this sounds when they read the plot synopsis:

 

Mulroney will play a district attorney whose daughter contracts a rare illness and needs new lungs. After discovering she's low on the official U.S. waiting list, he heads to Mexico to buy his way onto their list. But his ethical nature is put to the test when he has to choose between saving hundreds of children being killed for their organs or saving his daughter's life.

 

Okay, first off, little white girls aren't low on the official U.S. waiting list.  Also, I'm pretty sure Mexico doesn't have a list.   That's why there's a black market of organs and Do-It-Yourself surgery kits.  And here's how it's probably going to dodge the ethical dilemma: he'll be trying to save the kids after reconciling that he can't murder a child to save his own (although he'll probably be cool with them working in sweatshops so he can own designer clothing at a reasonable price), he'll help a bunch of kids escape, one will get shot, and with his dying breaths he'll say, "Please, sir.  Take my lungs..."  Mulroney then picks up Julio, runs to the border as fast as he can, finds the nearest unlicensed surgeon and screams, "I need his Mexican lungs!  Stat!"

 

That's how these things are done:
