This is fun....saw it in another book forum.....lets see how it goes here......

Pick a cast of actors for your favourite book that hasnt been made into a film yet...
Actors could be dead or alive, anyone in anything as it pleases you....would be great if you could give your reasons for doing so ....
My choice of book for movie adaptation would be
The Alchemist - by Paulo Coelho
The Shepard Boy, Santiago would be River Phoenix....young,gentle and oh so gorgeous....

The gypsy woman fotune teller who interprets his dream would be old n fat Elizabeth Taylor in a garish gypsy getup with her mad hair do

The old man in the plaza would be Laurence Olivier just like when he was in Laurence of Arabia

The boy that stole from him would be Haley Joel Osment
The Crystal Merchant would be Al Pacino

The Englishman would be Ralph Fiennes
Fatima would be a young and hot Sophia Loren
and The Alchemist would be Johnny Depp
