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

"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."

Although - have you seen The Passion? I thought Monica Bellucci was an inspired choice for M. Magdalene. Although they did the same retarded thing about her being a prostitute in that film. !!!

Heavens, no, it was one of the worst films I've paid money to watch. Literal adaptation is so little fun. No coherence, lots of snuff-filmish blood and gore, and acting so bad you can tell they're hamming even through the alien languages. As your gammer would tell you, you'd be better off at home, reading your Bible.
