I hope the Kim Davis movie is a musical

If you liked Inherit The Wind, the actual Scopes Trial was one of the great media circuses of all time.

But this one doesn't really fit the dramatic mood of Inherit The Wind.

A musical would be epic. Sort of like Godspell meets Best Little Whorehouse In Texas.

To dream the impossible dream.
To spend a few days in jail.
To defy the Supreme Court,
And go down with an epic fail!

They could call it "The Booking of Moran".

Call it "Jezebel! The Musical" and make it a mash-up of The Book of Mormon and Cannibal! The Musical.

Because songs like these...

...deserve to be heard by one and all.
