Columbia Pictures Breaks "The Da Vinci Code"

from Columbia Pictures

Culver City - June 27, 2003

'Da Vinci' centers on one of the greatest mysteries of humankind, a 2000 year-old conspiracy, clues to which are encoded in the paintings of Leonardo Da Vinci.

"Dan Brown is a master storyteller who has created an amazingly visual page turner," said Calley. "'The Da Vinci Code' is a thrill ride unlike any that we have read or seen in a long, long time. The Robert Langdon character is a compelling hero and sleuth and we can't wait to bring this puzzle to the screen."

I have already read "Angels and Demons" - BRILLIANT piece of work.

I cant wait to read the Da Vinci Code! I highly recommend these two books to anyone who enjoys an interesting and intelligent read.

If you don't fancy reading, you can watch the movies when they come out...I hope they make them as interesting as the books.

i read the da vinci code its pretty good

Well, you're right in the sense that his prose does not paint pictures in vivid colours or evoke the senses like the works of Arundhati Roy (NOT the one from JJKN) , Anita Desai or Ruskin Bond.

But, I honestly feel that keeping the reader hooked till the last page is the key to an excellent writer. The language or vocabulary may be very simple, but the narrative is what is most important.
