As we reported earlier Tuesday, one of the female higher-ups at the Southern Poverty Law Center allegedly transferred more than a million dollars to a male neo-Nazi. No surprise there, funneling money to leaders of hate groups is what the SPLC is notorious for. But there’s another wrinkle to the story: LOVE. It turns out the two were romantically involved. That has many online clamoring for a ‘based on a true story’ romantic comedy based on the cringey couple.
Conservative commentator Matt Walsh hopes he’s got the ball rolling. (READ)
If someone doesn’t turn this story into a romantic comedy screenplay, I’ll have to do it myself https://t.co/sjwA1OCJSs

Just being able to put "based on a true story" at the beginning alone would be worth it.

So where can we support getting this going? pic.twitter.com/r1fDu8h5wr
That’s what we’d like to know.
Posters have some casting ideas but unfortunately one of their favorite acting choices is no longer with us.

It would just end up being Zendaya and Tom Holland anyway if Hollywood did it.

Then let’s hope Hallmark makes it, and not a major studio, so we can avoid that casting.
Some commenters are hoping that if it gets made, it’ll be a musical with a springtime release.
An updated version of ‘Springtime for Hitler,’ perhaps?

Mel Brooks could co write it.

Mel Brooks always promised us “Hitler on Ice.” Maybe you can complete this seminal work. pic.twitter.com/ENf4fl1YEv

Just mention ‘Nazis’ and New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani will secure Rockefeller Center for shooting at no cost.
Commenters have some great ideas for movie titles and art.
