Kevin Bacon and Marcia Gay Harden are in negotiations to star in "Rails and Ties," a Warner Independent Pictures drama that will mark the feature directorial debut of Clint Eastwood's daughter Alison reports Reuters.
The script by Micky Levy tells of the physical, emotional and psychological collision of two families that is set in motion when a suicidal mother parks her car, with her 9-year old son inside, on a railroad crossing and awaits the arrival of a speeding train.
Bacon will play the train engineer, while Harden will be his wife. Production is to begin in early 2007 in Los Angeles.
