Transcript of a telephone conversation on 10/13/87 between Jim Cash and Jack Epps and Warren Beatty. The project just sort of died at Paramount and we moved on. Warren Beatty had had conversations with Barry Diller who was head of Paramount at that time, but still nothing happened. The screen rights lapsed and Warren Beatty optioned them himself and moved the project to Disney. Jeffery Katzenberg had also been at Paramount when Mr. Beatty was inquiring about the project and then set it up with Mr. Katzenberg at Disney. The script went into turnaround and moved over to the Disney. We were off writing other project and pretty much had given up on DICK TRACY ever getting made. Then we got a call from Warren Beatty. I had taken a meeting with him alone and this phone call was made later in the day to bring Jim up to speed and answer some questions.
