I'm sorry, but while an author can get away with using himself as a first person narrator in a novel, there is absolutely no reason to include him in the film adaptation if he doesn't do anything remotely interesting!!!

Then again, the protagonist doesn't do much of interest either, so....

I say! be gay, do crimes, what ho

and I thought Adam Driver was evil in the Star Wars films!

the fact that Tom Hooper is directing this and not Julie Taymor? homophobic
