On one hand I would love to see this book made to a movie but they would have to be super careful with the script. The book is perfect and I would hate if there were any changes made. As for a main lead Robert Redford and John Mahoney - fantastic choices. I can understand Clint Eastwood but I wouldn't pick him. He has all that Dirty Harry (it's a compliment!) and Ralph wasn't like that at the beginning. How about Harrison Ford? Nice, polite, charming and able to pull a stunt :D

good choices! I do like John Mahoney,such a good actor on Frasier,and Moonstruck,and the bad dad in Say Anything..from the description SK had in the book,I think Ralph was kind of a tall,lanky character,I think Henry Fonda would have been great..how about Morgan Freeman if you wanted to change the book a little?
