Whether you think cinema died with Hitchcock or only got good once Michael Bay started blowing up helicopters, this is the place where moving pictures are discussed.

    ...of Grey.

    I think Christian Bale would suit the part.

    You don't have to like the book to answer this question ppl, it was just supposed to be a fun thread eesh.

    I'm not sure, but apparently Emma Watson is/was/is rumoured to be in discussions as a possible Anastasia Steele..!

    Christian Bale could just do the same performance as in American Psycho.

    The appeal of this book is baffling though. Surely the topics are no longer particularly risqué, and the writing is just laughable.

    Well, Christian is rich, pompous and a prat.

    So...

    So basically, they'll be showing (soft) porn in cinemas?
    Never thought I'd see the day...

    Yeah it was the writing style that did my head in, I didn't read the whole book but I know a few people who've liked it.

    Sean Bean would be an interesting choice.

    How explicit actually is this book?

    It will most likely be somebody in their 20s as Christian is supposed to be not that much older than Anastasia, a college student. And it isn't awfully explicit, but it definitely deserves an age rating (which it worryingly doesn't have on it's cover).
