Inkheart
For anyone interested in the Inkheart movie that is currently being filmed...
This is an exerpt from Cornelia Funke's website where she talks about visiting the set of Inkheart:
"I flew to the set again in January... [and] it was absolutely enchanting! ... I sat in Elinor`s library to do an interview for the DVD (and learned what pictures she has on her walls!) I walked into Capricorn`s church and his living room. I saw Dustfinger stand in the rain in front of Mo`s and Meggie`s house and I saw Mo chase Meggie up the stairs to get her into bed. I saw Dustfinger with burned hands in Capricorn`s kitchen and Resa caring for him. Believe me Paul Bettany will break all your hearts in this scene. He is such an incredibly wonderful Dustfinger. As for Eliza and Brendan - I saw a scene with them in the van and it seemed like they stepped right out of my book! So brilliant. I ... just received the scene in which Mo reads from the 1001 Arabian nights. Andy Serkis as Capricorn is perfect. He is so dark and scary - and funny too! And Brendan read so wonderfully that I was not surprised when the gold coins started to rain from the ceiling."
I am so incredibly excited about this movie!!! Especially since the author says that the cast is so amazing. She also said this about Helen Mirren as Elinor:
"Helen Mirren is incredible. I still can`t believe she took the part. Of course she looks very different from the Elinor I described in my book but she is nevertheless so perfectly Elinor, that I will suggest for the script of Inkspell to make her part bigger than it is in the book. Otherwise it would be such a waste! I can`t wait to watch her do a scene!"
*bounces* I can't wait to see Inkheart!!
To conclude, here is the first promo still I have seen. It's of Meggie, and all I can say is that she looks pretty darned good!!

Hmm... how to describe it? It's one of those books where, if you try to explain even part of the plot, you give away the entire story...
Perhaps the best thing to do is to direct you over to Chris' review of it: http://blog.thedow.org/?p=182

Anyway, it really is a phenomenal series of books, and looks to be a dang good movie, I agree! I cannot WAIT to see Paul Bettany as Dustfinger. Ever since my wife mentioned that she saw him as perfect for the role (before he was announced, I might add), I've been really wanting to see him in this role. :) And it is so cool that Brendan as Mo is working out as well as Funke had hoped. She has had Brendan as a model for the character from the very beginning, so I'm glad she got him. :)

I just saw the movie last night and it is great! I loved the book. I read inkspell too, but not Inkdeath. I started too, but it was a litle boring. Inkheart is awesome though! It is defininetly worth a trip to the theater!
