- Atuk abstract "Atuk (Inuit for "Grandfather") is the name of an as-yet-unfilmed American film screenplay, intended to be a film adaptation based upon the 1963 novel The Incomparable Atuk by acclaimed Canadian author Mordecai Richler. It is essentially a fish out of water comedy of a proud, mighty Inuit hunter trying to adapt to life in the big city with satirical elements on racism, materialism and popular culture. Peter Gzowski's afterword adds some historical context, and elaborates on the satirized real-life (very real) counterparts of several of the novel's minor characters, including Pierre Berton.The script for the proposed film adaptation has been in existence since at least the very early 1980s, and although numerous Hollywood film studios have shown an interest in producing the film over the years, the movie remains unfilmed and the entire project in development hell. The film script is also renowned for an alleged paranormal curse which, as an urban legend, has said to have killed all the actors who have shown an interest in the lead role. These include John Belushi, Sam Kinison, John Candy, and Chris Farley, and even others who were planning to be in the film or associates of the late leads who had read the script in their presence, such as Michael O'Donoghue and Phil Hartman.".
