In fact, I believe Rossi would settle for no one less than Johnny Depp, or Pacino himself. <BR/><BR/>But you're right, thinking about it now ... Farrell would make a great Ray. <BR/><BR/>Dana? That's way too complicated right now ...

I do like Farrell, thought he was excellent in that CIA flick he did with Pacino, the name of which escapes me right now.<BR/><BR/>Jimmy Egan? Could this be in some way an homage to THE FRENCH CONNECTION. Gene Hackman's character of Jimmy "popeye" doyle was based on the real-life detective Eddie "Popeye" Egan.

And I think he would be well cast in the movie version of <I>The Big O</I>, which I think you were astute enough to hint at therein. You seemed to see him playing Rossi, but I could equally well see him playing Ray, as long as they don't wait too many years to film it.seana grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03774794086733027289noreply@blogger.com
