Well, that's pretty old, but still interesting. This is a script for the Driver film written circa 2006 by Roger Avary.

All I gotta say is: HOLY sh*t THAT'S EPIC! Though I must say, the plot goes above and beyond the normal cops & gangsters shtick that the Driver games are known for.
Having said all this, allow me to present a few goofs I found (barring any spoilers):
*The M-60 machine gun is 7.62 NATO caliber, not "50 mm".
*Furthermore, any instances of "50 mm" should be corrected to ".50 caliber"
*The script makes mention of the "Land Roamer" & "Melizzano", but it uses real vehicle names more often than not.
*The Heckler & Koch MP7A1 is a submachine gun, not an assault rifle.
*The Chevy Malibu wasn't introduced until 1964, starting life as the top of the line version of the Chevelle.
*The Desert Eagle is not available in .45 caliber. They may be referring to the Jericho 941, also known as the "Baby Eagle", a pistol which bears only token similarities to the Desert Eagle.

I've known about this for a while, too. However, I haven't seen the script before.
