Marilyn Manson – Announces Plans to Direct Film Based on Diary of Lewis Carroll
Gothic US rocker MARILYN MANSON announced at the Berlin Film Festival that he plans to direct a film based on the diary of Lewis Carroll in which he will play the part of the writer of “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland”.
MARILYN MANSON, his hair jet-black and his face painted a deathly white, said he wanted to show the dark obsessions of the Victorian author rather than make a period film because that would be “boring”.
“It is very much about his obsessions, not so much about the Victorian era. There will be sex,” he told reporters.
MARILYN MANSON, a bete noire of moralists who fear he is corrupting the youth with his blood-stained lyrics, said he identified with Carroll and wanted to focus on the dark side of his most famous work.
“I have many things in common with him. He was very much linked to his childhood.
“I want to take the children’s story that we all know and discover the horrifying roots that grow beneath every one of its childish metaphors,” he said.
Through MARILYN MANSON’s looking glass, Carroll’s story becomes that of a haunted writer living in an isolated castle, tormented by sleepless nights and visions of a girl named Alice.

Manson is a stupid faggot i dont care what anyone elese has to say. No matter what he does he will always be a faggot. Even if he cures world hunger or finds a cure for everytype of cancer he will always be a faggot.

are you really that dumb?
damn, I think the point of this article was the movie, not if you like Mansons music or him. It does sound like a good movie, seeing as Alice in Wonderland is one of my favorite childrens stories. – Scott
Just release a new album, for the love of God. It's been almost 3 fucking years since GOLDEN AGE, and it sucked balls.
Goooood. Stick to movies from now on!
xXxclichexgarbagex stop posting you waste of life :smile:
I agree with JHMDF
As much as I don't like Manson, I am actually curious to see what he comes up with.
Manson is awesome in film. Cannot wait to see what he does to this one.
so Manson is staring/directing a film, recording and releasing a new album, having weddings and art shows, making perfumes, and most likely boning his wife whenever he has a free moment and he STILL finds the energy to put on all that makeup and tend to his lesbian haircut… cocain is a hell of a drug.
go you!

ill give ya 57 mushroom slaps of pain
thats the kornographer/charliescene coming out…
I wonder if Manson will add his own goth version of some Brokeback Mountain action in his movie.
this is old news.
I hope he's not a jackass and uses his real name on this…I hate it when performers go into show biz and use their wacky stage names….like when THE ROCK used that for acting? He was awesome in Walking Tall and Be Cool (did he use the stage name in the former, I forget) but so long as he sticks with that moniker, every character he plays will be seen as The Rock.
Same for Manson
That's because the name "The Rock" would draw a crowd. If you tell someone "Dwayne Johnson" is starring in a movie they wouldn't know who the fuck you're talking about. But if you say "The Rock" is starring, EVERYONE knows.
