Quiet Earth has gotten hold of a copy of the screenplay for the movie adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's superb apocalyptic novel The Road. Huge praise is shelled out for the writing, so the expectations towards the movie (slated for 2009) are certainly high:
To be blunt, the script is a complete stunner. It is a devastating masterwork which, I'm glad to report, has been written with absolute devotion to the original novel. If this is the script that gets filmed, then The Road will not only be the most important post-apocalyptic film ever made but it will profoundly affect the cinema going world. But I can't help but wonder; is the world ready for a film this dark?
