The Thinklings report that there’s a deal to film C.S. Lewis’ The Great Divorce. The people who made “The Stoning of Soraya M.” are part of the project. The links are a rabbit hunt, so I’ll just link to their post.
I have a hard time thinking of a more naturally un-cinematic novel than The Great Divorce.
But they have my good wishes.

Wow. I can visualize the first half of it, I think. A self-absorbed ad executive going through the motions until he realizes he is in Hell. He takes the weird flying bus and arrives in Heaven. Perhaps it scares him for a while. Perhaps he hides and watches for a while. Do you remember the scene where someone tries to eat the fruit and the waterfall is gorgeous and terrifying? And then the one of the man with sin on his shoulder?
Eventually, he would be confronted and I’d think the gospel or the idea of submitting to Christ would have been clearly stated.
Oh! I would be VERY interested to see it!
