i am a big sucker for great books and among those great books that i love reading and re-reading is this soon-to-become-a-movie novel by dan brown: the da vinci code. the movie has a playdate as ealy as now: may 19, 2006. i'm kinda excited about the movie (starring tom hanks, audrey tautou, sir ian mckellen, among others) but as is my case in novels turned to movies, i am not keeping my hopes up.
in the meantime, since may 2006 is like ten months away, i am training my sights on rent. yes, one of my favorite musicals of all time. i know each and every single song in the soundtrack like the back of my hand. rent, the movie is scheduled to be shown 11/11. and that is like just four months away. i'm drooling in anticipation. for now, i content myself with the trailer from the apple site. [and sony even put ot a blog as part of the film's website. thank you sony people!]

lots of people i know who have read the book have aversion to having tom hanks play the central character. i wouldn't have an opinion because i haven't read the book yet. but based on their descriptions, i suggest gary sinise...whatchathink?
who among the current crop of hollywood actors could pass off as a harvard professor?
a lot of names were mentioned: hugh jackman, russell crowe, kevin costner, james spader...
when i read the book, i envisioned him as a cool professor in his early 40s with a great demeanor. tom hanks? not even close.
robert redford? he may be too old but he kind of fits the bill. but then again, i think he's really too old for the material.
final answer: dennis quaid. maybe.
