Well, it's on DVD now, and worth your while--I love Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen, and Renee Zellweger's annoyance factor is actually part of the narrative. Also, Ed wrote and recorded a song that plays over the credits, and it's in character/utterly hilarious.
I like the book as well--vintage Parker, spare and a bit creepy in its implaccable forward motion. I'm mainly reading it to remind myself that you can be really, really abrupt and it won't matter, because everybody knows WTF a horse is, etc.
