I have not read the book but this still looks like a great movie. Viggo is an excellent actor and seems like a really cool down to earth guy. Who have you interviewed that was not a nice person or gave you a hard time Manny?

at 2:51 there is an explosion... where the hell is that in the film?

[mhaze210]

ok...although Up in the Air, Basterds, and all those were good...THE ROAD was easily my favorite. The Road + The Hurt Locker were DEF my favorites no doubt...but fot the human emotion, love, and passion...i gota go w/ The Road as the BEST Picture of 2009.

I know it's sounds stupid but I would be so nervous to ask Mr Mortensen questions. He looks so... can't quite put words to describe him.

Just saw the film. It's amazing.

I went to one of the screenings in LA and The Road is wonderful....it's quite close to the book. Viggo rocks!
