Although Mr. Banat’s book was published more than a year ago, Saint-Georges is still on his mind. “Chevalier,” a film about Saint-Georges, is now in development by Griot Pictures Entertainment and is scheduled to start production later this year. Mr. Banat says he is concerned about how the composer will be portrayed.
Thomas Hopkins, the film’s producer, said the movie would take some liberties as a biopic, but that it would not “overstate the historical facts.” “It’s not a documentary,” he said, noting that the story was mainly about “a guy who was born an aristocrat and became a revolutionary.”
