Brad Pitt has brought the screen rights to Tom Rachman's novel The Imperfectionists which he will produce says Deadline
Set in Rome, the novel, which was published just a few months ago, follows an English-language newspaper in Rome. Exploring the professional and personal lives of the journalists working on the English-language paper, the novel covered job cuts and love lives and proved a reasonable hit.
The plan is for the movie adaptation to stick closely to the original story as told in the novel.
Rachman knows what he's talking about--He is a former AP writer who was stationed in Rome and he based the book on his own experiences.
