In an interview with Movieline Magazine from 2001, Christina Ricci mentions that she’s an admirer of The Fountainhead and would like to remake the movie:
Q: What’s your favorite novel? A: The Fountainhead because the writing is so beautiful.
Q: What about The Catcher in the Rye? A: I hate The Catcher in the Rye. It’s so whiny and incredibly self-involved. The fact that it was supposed to represent what we were going through in our teen years – I was just like, fuck you. I can take responsibility for my emotions and actions. […]
Q: If you could have three wishes connected to the movies, what would they be? A: I’d want to remake The Fountainhead. I’d like to run a studio. I want to have the capacity and ability to make films – I don’t have it right now.
Q: Would you say you have a large ego? A: Yes.

PS. In case you didn’t notice, that’s a copy of The Fountainhead she’s holding, in this poster. It looks as if she was approached about participating in a pro-reading poster campaign, and she chose The Fountainhead as the theme for her poster. Copies of this poster are available for purchase online. -Editor
