He just made some rewrites here and there, I think, and then they passed it to the next guy in the food chain. Then they ended up cutting out most of his rewrites other than a couple of jokes and some names. So it might seem substantially close to the final draft but still not contain much of Kevin's material.

That's how I remember it anyway, but bear in mind my memory is for shite.

: Will in Toronto last week for Wrestlemania I found a script for the film Coyote Ugly at a movie memorobilia store. It claimed to be the Kevin Smith draft. I seem to remember Kevin at some point saying that the final film only maintained a character name and the father's job from his draft, yet this one, as best i could remember, seemed awfully close to the final film.

: Anyone read it? Anyone know of something in it that might prove it is Kevin's draft?

: Thanks
