NP: David Lynch Reading

[Jamie McKittrick]

A little off-topic but here
<http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/A1GXFcjC3lL.jpg>'s a storyboard
drawn by an 11-year-old Martin Scorsese for a Roman epic starring Marlon
Brando, Richard Burton, Jack Palance, Gene Jean Simmons, Alec Guiness. Note
that a third of the page is dedicated to a detailed, yet boring, opening
credits sequence, and that it was to be shot in 75mm.

As far as I can tell - and I've done no research into this whatsoever - it
is authentic.
