Leonardo DiCaprio is to play a man with a particular gift for reading body language in the forthcoming adaptation of Blink, Malcolm Gladwell’s bestseller about how people make snap decisions. The writer-director will be Stephen Gaghan, who won an Oscar for his screenplay of 2000’s drug trade film Traffic. "[Gaghan] came to me out of the blue," Gladwell told trade magazine Variety. ‘He thought there was something in the book that was a movie. We took one chapter from the book and fashioned a story out of it. But most of it is something we dreamt up together."
Thanks to http://kottke.org, now touring Asia, for the pointer. Here is updated information on a previous installment in this series. So who will star in Freakonomics?

















Do you mean that the character to be played by DiCaprio demands someone
who has a particular (as in rare or unusual) gift for reading body
language, or someone who has the knowledge or training that many, perhaps
even most, people could acquire? According to Gladwell, ER doctors have
to determine four variables to diagnose a heart attack (as opposed to
twenty), but any competent doctor can do it. If this were the type of skill
that only a handful of doctors could acquire, it probably would not be
particularly useful, at least not to most patients in an ER who were
suffering a heart attack.
Btw, speaking of _Blink_, I’m glad the movie is not being made based on the
chapter on the great Warren Harding, as the chapter on him is useless.
Uh, Leonardo, Gladwell, who is a little bit black, got the idea for Blink when he grew an afro and suddenly started getting hassled by The Man. Are you sure this role is perfect for you?
Here’s my capsule review of “Blink:”
– Go with your gut reactions, but only when they are right.
– And even when your gut reactions are factually correct, ignore them when they are politically incorrect. (Full review at: http://www.vdare.com/sailer/050130_blink.htm)
Here’s Judge Posner’s scathing review of “Blink” in the New Republic: http://www.law.uchicago.edu/news/posner-blink.html
There’s really no limit to the amount of money an insightful journalist can make if he’s willing to sell his soul.
How about this pitch for a movie: Young economist makes up off the top of his head a slap-dash theory that American elites desperately want to believe is true. But, it turns out, the historical record is overwhelmingly against his popular theory. When young economist learns that the weight of evidence is against his hypothesis, he faces a moment of truth: does he choose the values of scholarship (the search for truth) or of celebrityhood (telling people what they want to hear)?
Young economist does the profit-maximizing thing and chooses fame and fortune.
“The Wire” Season 1 is the best adaptation of the drug dealer chapter Levitt could ever hope for. It may be the best television ever produced.
