‘Selma,’ the movie not off the ground

Friday’s Wall Street Journal blog “Speakeasy” carries an interview with Lee Daniels and touches on the making of the movie “Selma.”
In the question-and-answer piece, Daniels says he has secured the financial backing for the film, but still has to work out some details.
Actor-songwriter Lenny Kravitz has come up with a first draft of a song for the movie, but Daniels wants to put his touches on it, too.
Shooting hasn’t started. Even if it does, most of the setting will be in New Orleans, although www.selmatimesjournal.com has heard a little filming might be shot in Selma.
