Check out this cast for the movie version of Philip Roth's DYING ANIMAL!!!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a bit of info on a project, currently untitled, but an adaptation of Philip Roth's Pulitzer Prize-winning novella, DYING ANIMAL. Dennis Hopper just joined up, as did Peter Sarsgaard and Debbie Fuckin' Harry. Already on-board are Penelope Cruz, Ben Kingsley and Patricia Clarkson. Lakeshore is doing it, their second Roth adaptation, the first being THE HUMAN STAIN. Nicholas Meyer, who wrote the screenplay for STAIN is once again attacking Roth's work. The plot sounds a bit standard (a professor has an affair with a grad student, it ends in heartbreak and years later she returns to his life with shocking news... I'm sure that there's much more to it... it did win the Pulitzer, afterall...), but the cast just can't be ignored. Just seeing Kingsley, Sarsgaard and Hopper in the same flick make this interesting to me.
