Ottawa meets Hollywood as Ottawa Valley book publisher signs a deal for a major movie! The Flying Bandit, published by Burnstown Publishing House and written by Ottawa author Robert Knuckle, with Ed Arnold, will be released as a major movie within the next year starring Mel Gibson, Elisha Cuthbert and Josh Duhamel. The novel is based on the true story of Canada’s most daring armed robber, Gilbert Galvan Jr., who escaped from prison in the US and made his way to Canada where he assumed a new identity, fell in love, married, and portrayed himself as a travelling security consultant living in Pembroke. Unbeknownst to his friends and family, he was leading a double life flying across Canada and successfully pulling off over 60 bank robberies and jewellery heists.
