How would they react? hmm, you just brought something to mind, not quite totally unrelated: has anyone here seen _man in the iron mask_ from 1998? aramis (jeremy irons) speaks my favorite line of the film, which i can't tell as it would spoil a wonderful bit of yendiness. gerard depardieu is great as porthos, gabriel byrne does an admirable job as d'artagnan, leonardo decaprio is great (i know, i know, but in this he's great) as both the spoiled phoenix emperor, i mean, louis xiv, and his twin brother, but john malkovich, ah, that was what i was getting to... now i cannot read a bit of aerich's dialogue without hearing malkovich's voice, and i can see him everytime aerich shrugs or does whatever aerich does when he's not shrugging. don't necessarily want to get into the whole casting call thang, but does anyone else have a certain actor that they imagine as a brust character?
