The Da Vinci Job

Oh man! I just checked back on the cast list for The Da Vinci Job Code, and Paul Bettany has been cast as Silas the albino killer monk!

Can't wait to see him act this bit:
"Andorra, he thought feeling his muscles tighten. Incredibly, it was in that barren and forsaken suzerain between Spain and France, shivering in his stone cell, wanting only to die, that Silas had been saved."

That's made my morning, that has. Ah, Andorra! Why did I ever leave?

I can't bring myself to read the book--the occasional highlighting of a ripe line like the one you've quoted reminds me that Dan Brown's prose has the same effect on me as reality TV: it just makes me cringe, and I need those muscles for other things.

But I'd see Paul Bettany OR Alfred Molina OR Ian McKellan in just about anything. All three of them in the same movie, however bad? I guess I'll be there.

*sigh*

And if we're really lucky, there'll be a Smart car chase through the streets of Paris.

What we really need is Basil Brush, The Movie.

It's the make or break deal for me with this film.
