The Bishop Charlotte Reporting….

Matt Damon has been looking for a good project to make his directorial debut for a long time, and he may have finally found it. He and John Krasinski (The Office) have written a screenplay reminiscent of Erin Brockovich that they will also star in. No title or detailed plot summary yet.

Damon has looked at some other projects, such as Warner Bros.’ Father Daughter Time: A Tale of Robbery and Eskimo Kisses, but it looks like he’s tabled that in favor of working with Krasinski. With a few acting roles lined up for Damon, it might be a while before he actually sits in the director’s chair, but now we know that he is heading in that direction.

Movie Quotes

Wedding Crashers (2005)
John Beckwith:
Claire! Will you wait just a second? All I wanted is was a second alone with you so I could explain things. But I've never gotten that chance. Maybe I don't deserve it, so here goes. For longer than I care to remember, my business has been crashing weddings. I crashed weddings to meet girls. Business was good. I met a *lot* of girls. It was childish and it was juvenile.
Claire Cleary:
And pathetic.
John Beckwith:
Yeah. That's probably the best word to describe it. But you know what? It also led me to you, so it's hard for me to completely regret it. And that person that you met back at your folks' place? That was really me. Maybe not my name, I'm John Beckwith by the way. Or my job. But the feelings we felt; the jokes, the stupid laughs, that was all me. I've changed. I've realized something. I crashed a funeral today.
Jeremy Grey:
[mutters] Oh Jesus.
John Beckwith:
It wasn't my idea, I was basically dragged to it.

John Beckwith:
I went with Chazz who you forgot to tell me is totally insane. He also might be a genius because it actually does work, he's cleaning up.
Claire Cleary:
John!
John Beckwith:
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. That's neither here nor there. Anyway, I saw this widow and she's a wreck. She has just lost the person she loved the most in this world and I realized we're all going to lose the people we love. That's the way it is, but not me. Not right now. Because the person *I* love the most is standing right here and I'm not ready to lose you yet. Claire, I'm not standing here asking you to marry me, I'm just asking you not to marry *him* and maybe take a walk, take a chance.
