Today's LAT:
Nearly a dozen writers worked on the film - so many that the Writers Guild decided that no single contributor made enough of an impact, resulting in the group giving credit to one person, Patrick O'Neill, who worked up the original structure. In addition to veteran Scott Frank ("Minority Report," "Out of Sight") - who worked on the script, then came back to polish the work of other scribes who had come on to polish his work - the uncredited writers include, in no particular order: "Shutter Island's" Laeta Kalogridis, "Ocean's Eleven's" Ted Griffin, " " What Happens in Vegas' " Dana Fox, and "X-Men: The Last Stand's" Simon Kinberg.
