Charles Darwin… or Charlie Montana?
Great news, movie lovers! Brian De Palma has been tapped to direct the upcoming Charles Darwin biopic. The film is not a faithful historical account but centers around a more “cinema-friendly” version of the great naturalist.
In De Palma’s version, Darwin is a swaggering Cuban refugee who has only three things in this life — his balls, his word, and his theory that all living things descended from a common ancestor and have evolved over time through a process of natural selection.
Darwin — or “Charlie Montana” as he’s known in the film — rises to the top of the the Galapagos’ cocaine-driven underworld, only to have it all come crashing down in a bloody shootout aboard the HMS Beagle.
As Charlie says, “First you get the money. Then you get the power. Then you get the finches.”
