I'll start with A Fan's Notes and American Pastoral. Midnight's Children may be up there as well.

Billy Bob did indeed either pen the screenplay, along with Tom Epperson. It was Carl Franklin's directorial debut. By the way it was Bill Paxton that play Dale "Hurricane" Dixon. Your right about everything in the film is great.

That's another film I must see, so many films I've missed. I used to go more regularly then recently, but I'll add that one to my Blockbuster online list. Thanks Andy.

I've never read Rushdie. Meant to but never got around to it.

Have you read One Hundred Years of Solitude (Garcia-Marquez)?

One of my favorites.

I've read pretty much everything Garcia Marquez wrote. Solitude is a great book.
