Detroit stories that should be movies

[Chicago48]

Detroit has such a long history for a US city. What bit of Detroit history do you think would make a good movie?

My choice: Pontiac's rebellion

Inspired by Gameguy's question

I would like for you all, next time you're at the Detroit Public Library. Go to the Burton Collection and read my family's story in a journal form. It's hard cover, the title is "The Family Journal, The McLinns, the McLains and the Wrights". You may also want to look up documents donated pertaining to Detroit's black bottom neighborhood and it's entertainers. Ask for "McLinn" collection

One last thing. When I made those donations, the librarian entered the donations into a paper ledger [[pen and paper) and I was shocked. They don't have an electronic entry. It's all on paper.
This is a shame in this day and age that the library doesn't have the resources/funds to bring their entry of books and collections into the 21st century.
I suggested to a Freep writer that a kickstarter fund be started and sent the suggestion to the Directors....haven't heard back from them.

Solid record keeping doesn't have to be computerized. There's nothing like paper for documentation. Any doubt about your donation, go get the book. I'm not arguing against progress, but I'm glad to hear that they keep good records.
