There is no proof that says Jesus is or isn't married. That is up to your beliefs. The Da Vinci Code however is a work of fiction.

What I can tell you though is that the Dossiers Secrets which was the central theme of the book, in which it insinuates that Leonardo Da Vinci was part of the Priori of Sion is fake. It was created after Da Vinci's time and therefore was not a listing of the members and grand master passed down from century to century.

While the book was more detailed than the movie, I enjoyed the movie more because putting up with Brown's choppy writing style was quite a headache for me. :p But nevertheless there were things that would have probably flown right over my head if I hadn't read the book, one being all the things that they changed. ;)

Brick is one of the best films I've seen in years. I'd wholeheartedly recommend it.

It's a detective story set in a high school. The vice principle is Shaft! It was made for $495,000 begged and borrowed from the director/screenwriter's neighbours, edited on his Mac in his bedroom and it's still infinately better than many films with 200 times its budget.

The dialogue is fantastic, the twists unexpected and the action scenes are fantastic.

Please, please watch this movie.

Most will agree he's dead though.

The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957)
too old but I enjoyed watching it.
Are you still whistling like them?

I remember, the whistle got stuck with me for a week or two after I watched the movie.
