How did we convince donwinslow to write a five part series on Deadline? Our editor-in-chief, DeadlineMike, a diehard NY Giants fan, has to rock a Patriots shirt all week. Now, he's feeling 'shame, shame, shame!' 🔔🤣 Check out Don's first feature:
Well, he was a hero of about everyone who writes – or reads – crime fiction. Some writers are admired, Mr. Leonard was revered.
What he did that was such a revelation to me was to flip their classic, first-person noir voice to the third person, but get so close to his main character that you felt that you knew him, that he was your friend. In substituting his own unique voice for Philip Marlowe’s, Lew Archer’s and Travis McGee’s, Leonard somehow made you an intimate of the book’s protagonist, Jack Ryan. And it was something more: Marlowe, Archer and McGee – those great characters – were always a little larger than life.
I was in awe, thinking, ‘Man, if I could write books like these, if I could tell stories like Elmore Leonard, that would be a great life’. My agent, friend and partner-in crime-fiction Shane Salerno called one day to ask if I’d be interested in co-writing a film version of Unknown Man #89.It turned out that Mr. Leonard was interested in me working on it with him. That just blew my mind, sort of like a beer-league softball player invited to play catch with Willie Mays.That was October 15, 2011.
