I’d love to see him do “Libra” before this one. Man, I love that book.

I’m all for Cronenberg branching out. I don’t know what it is about the horror genre that tends to typecast directors.

But Cosmopolis wasn’t even a good book. I’m not really too crazy about Cronenberg deciding to go for more realistic and down to earth premises. He could very well make something good out of it, but again, Cosmopolis wasn’t even a good book? I think if he’s to adapt any of Don Deillo’s novels, he should do White Noise… though I guess the title would have to be changed so it wouldn’t be mistaken with that shitty horror movie.

Whatever he does is brilliant. Why force such a genius to adhere to just one genre? And I’d hardly call Crash or even AHOV or EP “mainstream”.
