I'm old, lazy and just want to make a movie worth millions..

Okay, so I'm honest, that's a bad start. However, it's all true- I AM old, I AM lazy and I have NO desire to have to learn all this very technical screenplay stuff from scratch at the end of my life span.
I write for magazines and have a few books (pretty successful overall) out but now I have a great (aren't they all?) little novella about 75 pages long that, everyone so far, thinks would make a better screenplay than short book or long short story.
I could buy a cool Screenplay transducer software thingie but it would be all for naught if I couldn't at least get an ear from a producer for the basic plot line and incite interest.
So, again, being totally lazy, where or who can I contact to do this stuff for me? Of course, I'd have to pay but how much is realistic for someone to handle this, from developing it into a screenplay to contacting potential producers? I have no time or abilities in this realm.
And, if I may reiterate, it's the greatest story since "Gone With the Wind!" (aren't they all?)...
