That is one excellent story. Other Charles Portis I didn't like so much, unfortunately.

It would almost certainly be the Coen Brothers, and they made No Country even more edgy.

As far as I'm aware James Franco has the rights.... Look at what he did to child of God and the sound and the fury.

How does he keep getting the rights to make these movies? He's not a good director, sticks himself into every movie, and casts all his friends to be in them. He can't keep getting away with this.

grue trit. It was a book first, just in the off chance that you're not trolling and are, in fact, a pleb

Lonesome dove

>>7764779
No, it isn't; partly because nobody on this board reads, and I'd say 95% of this board has never heard of The Sisters Brothers, because all /lit/ does it frequent the same books.

Last Go Round by Ken Kesey. Not as patrician as One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest or Sometimes a Great Notion but is still entertaining as.
>>
>>7764779
It should be. It wasn't any good, the writer isn't talented.
>>
>>7764737
The books probably aren't to everyone's taste but try Flashman and the Redskins, he leads a 49er wagon train comprised of slave prostitutes while fleeing the law, for getting tangled in an abolitionist plot, in the 2nd part he returns when the west is closing and watches Little Bighorn.
