I have already given the role of Krishnamurti to Sean Penn!!!
Cass
But seriously, I think it is a great idea, not yours, Leon's.

dear Mauri for a successful movie dont confuse the issue with facts we need 
blockbusters I think Tom Hanks for Col Olcott
Arnie Scwartzeniger for K.H. Sly Stalone as M. Jodie Foster for AB, Md 
Columb..Maddonna. Mr Columb Sean Penn. Cant wait that lenth of time for M 
Jackson to play CWL any suggestions for a replacement? We need to find some 
cheap tigers/lions for the fight scenes any contacts with zoos Etc anything 
thats half alive will do. Is Clarence that cross eyed lion still on the go I 
liked that one when he was in Daktari in the 1960's. we also need an 
iceberg, the one from TITANIC should do that went down well!! Can we get 
Shrek in for a couple of shots, keeps the kids interested.Need to do more 
work of the heavy bed scenes, Need to get the custume people to get acurate 
designs, can we get nylon flannels?Product Sponsors need their stuff 
promoted in the film, we need to find a way to get the Acme Digital Alarm 
Clocks in full view, also Gucci Computers ,We also need the Busby Berkley 
Girls for the dance sequence, we can pass that off as a dream sequence. of 
course every thing is done IN THE BEST POSSIBLE TASTE!!!! Bring on the empty 
horses.
