Casting Suggestion: Langella as Miller

While viewing the excellent film, Frost/Nixon, it struck me that actor Frank Langella would be a great casting choice to play an old Henry Miller from the 1960s. All it would take are some blue contact lenses and a bit of a Brooklyn accent (Langella is from New Jersey)--the rest is already in place. I was last inspired by the idea of casting Miller for a movie a few years back, when I posted 'Casting Henry Miller.'

In the film Starting Out in the Evening (2007), Langella played a writer. Check out the photo still below and tell me that is not Miller.
Frank Langella as character Leonard Schiller in Starting Out in the Evening (photo: Roadside Attractions).

At right of this paragraph is a photo of Miller with glasses, from around the same age period of life. At the bottom of this post is a larger photo of Miller, several years earlier. Langella is actually 71 years old, but can play a bit younger, I think. A film about Miller's redemption in the courts with the Tropic of Cancer trial seems possible, maybe with some flashbacks of his life, with a younger actor playing younger Miller . Anyone got a few million lying around?

If we could have a time machine, I think an excellent choice for an actor as Miller in his forties would be Lee Marvin, check this photo:

Langella is a bit chubby to be Miller :)
