Literary Question of the Month - May

After taking a brief hiatus from Literary Questions of the Month, Rob comes back with this extremely fun but daunting question:

"you're a film producer, and wery hot property right now since your last film made a billion-zillion dollars and broke all sorts of box-office records, and won 20 Oscars...as a reward, you're told that you can make a film from any book your heart desires, be it your favorite, or one you can strongly visualize, or one you'd like to see remade in your own vision...you have a blank check, you can cast whatever actors you like, hire whatever director you wish...so, my multiple question is: what would that book be? who would you cast? and who would you pick to direct? (grins) you can even name your cinematographer if you're feeling frisky.."

(I had to quote, as a simple paraphrase wouldn't capture Rob's evil and sly, yet hilarious, persona.)

Is anybody up to the (fun) task of answering this question? Drop on by the BBD and weigh in on this if you think you have the perfect arthaus hit!
