Casting

[bryant]

Zooey Deschanel as Ada Lovelace? Well, Bruce Beresford has done some good stuff, so you never know.

... man, I gotta follow this Twitter feed. Ethan Hawk in some flick about numbers stations! Viggo Mortensen as Freud in the new Cronenberg movie! Who knew?

Can I just say that that's brilliant casting? I've seen Zooey Deschanel in, I think, three different movies, and therefore I assume that Beresford is advancing the theory that the godmother of computing is herself a robot, and Deschanel is perfect for it.
