I read on Cinematical that Snow Angels by Stuart O’Nan is set to become a movie starring Emily Mortimer, Sam Rockwell and Amanda Peet. I have a very strong memory of reading this book; it’s a powerful story that really stuck with me and it was the first book that I’d read by an author that quickly became one of my favorites.
I have to say that other than Mortimer and Rockwell, I’m not really excited by anyone currently attached to the film: script by David Gordon Green (All the Real Girls–ugh) and directed by Jesse Peretz (who??)
The movie is years off, so I’d recommend reading the book in the meantime. Travel back in the Way-Back Machine to 1997–see my original thoughts on Snow Angels here.
