- Isn't this one of those movies that have been shelved for ages until the star became famous? like Secret Window and Johnny Depp? -- nm - Hotkiss Jan 4, 17:06 5
  - 1. That wasn't the reason this was shelved. 2. Depp has been famous since the 80's. -- nm - nubby Jan 4, 17:16 3
    - Surely I'd have heard of him otherwise! -- nm - Reagen Jan 4, 17:18 2
