You Can't Win is really something. Do as Secret Forts tells you!
And am I wrong when I say he looks like Willem Defoe?

One of my favorite books, didn't know a movie was in the works. Hope they can capture it well.

The movie is being made Robinson Devor, who did the great, awful documentary Zoo. Exciting stuff! I'm interested in seeing how he'll tackle this one.
