The Road by Cormac McCarthy(NCFOM, Horse Whisperer)

'Road' to bigscreen - Entertainment News, Film News, Media - Variety
The Road (film - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

So Aragorn as the father. I don't know how many others have read this but I felt it was the best fiction book of the last twenty years. I don't know if Viggo can pull it off but I think if he does it's going to be an Oscar worthy performance.

If you haven't read the book you really should.

This is definitely one of the most fucked up books I've read in a while. I don't know that Aragorn was the best choice. But he has a chance to win some kind of award or something if he doesn't f it up, because the story is really good and perfect for a movie. Not too much action. Just enough. They could fit almost all of the book in the movie.

I hope they don't pick a boring, cute kid. They need someone with some character.

The Horse Whisperer? You're mixing up your novels with horses in their title.

I'm weary of this movie though. Viggo is an ok choice I think, the kid seems to look the part too, but I just don't know if the director (The Proposition guy) will be subtle enough with it. The book is great and it's a super quick read so there's no excuse not to read it if you haven't yet.
