Hollywood loves Dennis Lehane. His novels “Mystic River” and “Gone Baby Gone” were both made into high-profile films by the likes of Clint Eastwood and Ben Affleck. Meanwhile, Columbia Pictures has already bought the rights to his new book “The Given Day,” which takes place amid the chaos of the Boston police strike of 1919. We talk with Lehane, who was also a writer for HBO’s “The Wire.”
