LOS ANGELES AP – The legal adventures of Clive Cussler took a new twist Tuesday when attorneys for the writer and the producers of the 2005 film “Sahara” each argued their clients were the real winners in a breach-of-contract case decided last May.
Jurors ruled May 15 that Cussler, regarded as “the grand master” of the action-adventure novel, breached his contract with Crusader Entertainment and owed the company $5 million. The company turned Cuttler’s book “Sahara” into a 2005 film starring Matthew McConaughey and Penelope Cruz.
