http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/da_vinci_code/small.html ive never read the book but i've heard good things about it. Ill be looking forward to seeing this one. Tom hanks + Ian mckellen = oscar nomination
It'll take you three days. Once you start reading the book you won't be able to put it down. It's very addictive, action-packed and fast-paced, even if some of the facts do contradict one another. The movie's going to be amazing and I absolutely cannot wait for it to come out so I can see it. I've been waiting for a year now.
The albino monk is played by Samuel L. Jackson in whiteface. The Da Vinci code is an awesome book, but I think Angels & Demons, the prequel, is a lot better.
