The film "Married to the Mob," imagines sufferings of the young, attractive, restless wife of a minor mobster. The film was dreamed up by Barry Strugatz and Mark Burns, two screenwriters whose gainful employment, until now, has been as a film editor and a location scout, respectively. Their script found its way to Orion Pictures, which shipped it along to the director Jonathan Demme a choice possibly inspired by the fact that his last feature film, "Something Wild," was also a comedy with a protagonist escaping from strictures of a small-minded, middle-class existence.
