Tom McCarthy to Write Supernatural Family Comedy HOME MOVIES

Win Win writer-director Tom McCarthy has made three outstanding films but his most recent gigs are writing jobs only (at least at this point).  In February, he was hired to write the inspirational sports drama Million Dollar Arm, and now he’s been hired to write the supernatural family comedy Home Movies for DreamWorks  According to Heat Vision, the story “centers on a man who is able to revisit certain moments in his life through his home movies and change things.”  That’s an intriguing premise and it seems like a script that’s well-suited for McCarthy.  All of his previous movies not only find honest drama, but they’re earnest and never resort to cheap laughs.
