99 THINGS I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IN 2009: #6: THE INFORMERS
Who/what?
Big-screen
Pirate Bay adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' 'The Informers'.
Why? Because alongside 'Glamorama', 'The Informers' is my favourite Bret Easton Ellis book. Because even the most obvious interpretations of his books have spawned some interesting movies. Plus: the roll-call for this project is pretty convincing: Kim Basinger, Billy Bob Thornton, Rhys Ifans, Mickey Rourke, Winona Ryder, etc.
Drive slow homey: Rumour has it all supernatural elements from the book have been cut. No vampires? *sucks teeth, creating sound of bitter, stand-offish disappointment*
When? May 2009
But I want it now! Watch the trailer after the jump.
