Hi David
I read Oddfellow and enjoyed it very much. It is clearly a deeply felt, very personal work, with great emotional resonance.
I must confess that I have difficulty seeing it as a film - as a 90 minute film, anyway. My hunch is that the scope of the story suggests a mini series.
Good luck with the screenplay.
