As long as I'm tossing out random notes today, I'll throw this in.I was very excited the other day to read that Ben Affleck is making Dennis Lehane's Gone, Baby, Gone into a movie. I'm sure someone, somewhere, in the past has heard me say "Mark my words, this book will be made into a movie!"
But they made Lehane's Mystic River, first, which was also a pretty good choice. (I predicted that one too, long before it was chosen for a film.) I hope they do as good with translating this one onto the big screen as they did with Mystic.
I live in Boston -- Dennis Lehane and Ben Affleck country. When they filmed Mystic River, it was very cool because they came to my formerly working-class neighborhood to shoot bar scenes and churches.
ReplyDeleteThat IS cool. I'm very excited about this one; I'll spend the night at the theater to be the first in line.
