But will it reach the heights of "Raising Cain"?

So it seems that the film version of The Black Dahlia is upon us, after what seems at least a dozen false starts (and nearly twenty years after publication). Hmmmmm, Hartnett eh? I remember going to the movie theatre once, and upon realizing that my friends wanted to see "40 Days and 40 Nights", I promptly left. About the only thing I have seen him in is "Black Hawk Down" and his 2 minutes in "Sin City", and he didn't ruin those movies. I know Jarrett thinks he looks like some sort of primeval ape-man. But what about DePalma? Its been four years since "Femme Fatale", and even that was only a passable effort at best. Never saw his Kubrick rip-off or "Nic Cage Zany-Acting Movie #43". Right now though, my biggest disappointment is with rating specifics. Some grisly scenes?! I wont be satisfied unless the film induces entire audiences to acute nausea. I believe that I would be an excellent choice to direct the film version of "The Big Nowhere". I have some great ideas for the whole "eye-socket-fucking, penis-biting killer" thing that opens the book.
