Now a foolish question. Imagine you have just bought the filming
rights of Vineland. You have managed to write a screenplay, believe
it nor not, and the film only lasts 2h 30'. The producers keep
telling you that you can do whatever you want and that money is not a
problem. But now you have to choose the actor who will be Brock Vond.
What about it? Who could be the terrible arch-nark?
(If I were you I'd be in trouble, because, for some mysterious
reason, I kept putting Frank Sinatra's face on Brock Vond while
reading the novel, and I guess dead actors cannot yet be persuaded to
star in a film...)
