Life of Pi Movie

I'm not sure how many people have read the book "Life of Pi" but it is a Booker Mann prize winner by Yann Martel. I think that it is quite esoteric, but very extoradinary-it's quite deep and requires a few readings to try to understand the many layers of meaning. It's a brilliant work of literature.

So, (onto the real topic) i was abit concerned about the upcoming movie adaption, it's not a typical Hollywood blockbuster and like The Virgin Suicides or A Beautiful Mind it needs to be very carefully adapted. But i'm so happy to learn that Jean-Pierre Jeunet will be the director.

The Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro team have produced some of my absolute favourite french movies. Amélie, Delicatessan, La Cite des Enfants Perdus and A Very Long Engagement.
