V for Vendetta

[Sean Mannion]

Gilliam's said he'd do it (and c'mon, look at Twelve Monkeys if you doubt he 
could do it!); HBO were interested in the treatment for it at some point (or 
so i've heard) - but I doubt they'd give it the finances needed while having 
'Rome' on their hands. But there is hope, still......

....I personally want to see the biographies (a word I can't type anymore 
without thinking about Dos Passos) and the 'Tales of the Black Freighter' 
intact in any treatment anyone does.
