The Da Vinci Job

[altariel]

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?

Of course, if I were making it, I would populate it with generous flashbacks and have McKellen also play Da Vinci and Sophie Marceau and Johnny Depp play the Holy Couple. :D THAT would be fun.

Boy, I wish you were making it.

Haven't seen The Passion. Good?

I know, I wish I was making it too! Johnny would make the spiffiest Jesus EVER.

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.

Hang on, am I being stupid? Is this the Mel Gibson disaster you're talking about?

I am, sorry! Oh, I should have remembered that Jeanette Winterson did a book called that as well, bless her. Did you think of that? I am indeed talking about the Mel Gibson disaster.
