Re: The Long Walk- Gonna be a long wait......
Lilja: Do you have any plans for The Long Walk now? Are you working on it at the moment?
Frank Darabont: It's on one of the burners on the stove you know. It's not on the front burner at the moment but I imagine it's going to be something that I'll do probably within the next five years. I don't have any immediate plans'¦
Lilja: It will be very interesting to see that one made into a movie.
Frank Darabont: That one will be very, very faithful to Stephen's story, even more faithful then The Mist was. But it doesn't bear a huge budget because it's a very existential strange little story. To do it faithfully then it winds up being a strange little movie so not a blockbuster, just a very interesting film I think.
Lilja: I think that potentially it could be a very good movie if it's done right.
Frank Darabont: Thank you. Well, I think it's one of Steve's best stories; it's so strange and brilliant isn't it?
Lilja: Yeah, it's amazing to be able to make a story about people who are just walking.
Frank Darabont: Exactly! And what it is, is Stephen King meets Eugene Ionesco and I definitely want the movie to have that same feeling.
FUCK!!!!
:bs: I was REALLY looking forward to this. This deserved to be filmed and released while the reality show craze is still going on. By the time they get around to filming it, the reality genre will be dead and the film will bomb.
