I think it would be an interesting story if done right. I think it would have to be done in a way, where some of things would be true, or borderline between being insane and being true. I think if you did it kind of like JFK was done it could be interesting. I think the Jimmy Swagger story would be great. I think a good way to approach it would not only Jimmy Swagger, but also Jim Baker, Jerry Falwell, Larry Flint, and Tammy Fay Baker. I think it would be an interesting story with Jessica Hahn and all the deceit that went on and stuff. Also, how Jerry Falwell treated Jim Baker. And Tammy and Jerry's different approach to homosexuals, I think would make for an interesting story. It would kind of be like a Good Fellas Paradise Lost type story. I think two other men who may be interesting movies would be William Braham, because of his upbringing, the mystery surrounding him, his weird teachings when he was older and his tragic death. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_M._Branham And I think another one would be O.L Jaggers who ironically William Branham tried to reach out to before he went a little crazy. I think a good twist on his story would be the boderline of being a healer and being insane. I think it would be a good story to approach in the same way as the movie the Shinning or The Aviator. O.L. Jaggers was part of the voice of healing movement in the 1940s. It seemed like he had a revival ministry but later in his life he began to become a little strange. He believed his church was building a golden alter to God. It looked like spray painted macaroni. He then began to believe he built the Holy Of Holies. He appointed elders in his church to wear golden crowns and wear robes. His church began to look more like a space ship, than a church with some of the things he had inside the church. He also wrote a book UFO's and the creatures that fly them. I didn't know this was going to end up being a board for movie ideas. :) I think each story would be an interesting movie if done right.
