Cool. New adaptation of the Leopard, my favorite novel of all time. Hope they

don't screw it up. The original film with Burt Lancaster is a classic. But a new treatment is cool as long as it doesn't suck.

The Leopard (Il Gattopardo) by Giuseppe Tomasi de Lampedusa is one of the most painfully beautiful novels ever written.

If nothing else, I hope this adaptation inspires more of you to read the original. pic.twitter.com/74ZrtBoggs

It's surprising but "Pyromania" was the original title of the book.
