White Jazz split for upcoming movie version?

I would say yes once there is confirmation that filming is actually starting to happen. A couple attempts have already been tried and so far no dice. And now Curtis Hanson is rumored to be making his own sequel to L.A. Confidential so who knows? Count Ringworm 14:10, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The film has its own IMDB page that lists George Clooney, so I would say it deserves its own page. This article should say more than 2 sentences about the book (previous summaries were reverted due to copyvio). Some notes:

I know nothing about this book/movie, I just stumbled upon the article
IMDB lists the release date as 2009, not 2008 as in the article
First sentence in film section might be a copyvio of http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0892384/trivia.

AGREE - it would seem that this is moving towards a start date later this year for a 2008 release. RoyBatty42 18:03, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Film headlines

Gosling and Clooney drop projects —Erik (talk • contrib) - 19:45, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This news is already in the article and I also have a link to it in the References section. Thanks! --J.D. 20:08, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Film still on?

If not, we need to remove the film cats, although I wonder if we should remove them anyway, at least until the film is released. Aristophanes68 (talk) 00:45, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Intro paragraph too revealing

There's innate spoilers in the introduction paragraph, it should be cut down to explain basic tenements of the story but not any specific details. The plot section can be used to describe the story in further detail. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.162.224.177 (talk) 20:43, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

all the verbs ?

"Originally, White Jazz was 900 pages, but his editor asked him to shorten it to 350 pages, which he did by removing all the verbs."
I haven't read the novel yet and I'm surprised by this assertion. ALL the verbs ? Does it mean that, instead of "Ed looks at Dudley", we have "Ed at Dudley" ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.32.98.62 (talk) 18:05, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
