*Night Train* is a popular title & I don't really recall how it was incorporated into the plot but a few months ago I picked up some used vinyl including Oscar Peterson's *Night Train*. This is some great jazz. It also fits with the book as Oscar is known as a stylistic genius. *Night Train* (the song) is also characterized by mood swings. As is *Night Train* (the album) as a whole. Hopefully this is who/what MA had in mind. Agreed that *Night Train* is filmable, but I'd give my top vote to *Dead Babies*. But I see break out potential for Roseane Barr as Mike. A perfect fit, really. Jennifer Rockwell? Who else but Ginger Spice. Charlton Heston as the Colonel.
I don't follow the London Fields Move site so I'm not aware of any promises. But ya gotta admit that any literary web site is pretty esoteric business. So one that is solely confined to a movie adaptation that isn't even cast yet takes the cake for minimal target market. But I would like to read that screenplay.
