Frank film

Now here's a film that I will be queuing up for on the first night - and quite likely the second and third nights as well:
Academy Award winner Robert Duvall has been approached to portray famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

Meanwhile, another Oscar winner, Gene Hackman, is in talks to play department-store mogul Edgar J. Kaufmann in the film adaptation of the book, “Fallingwater Rising,” by Franklin Toker.

Libertarian Duvall, with one of the world's finest actors - Hackman - in a film about Frank Lloyd Wright! I'm buying the popcorn already in anticipation!!

(Pictured above right, Frank Lloyd Wright's design for the Huntington Hartford Country Club.)

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
