Will The Da Vinci Code Open at the Louvre?

The producers of the film The Da Vinci Code are hoping to have the European premiere of their film at the Louvre in Paris.

The film is based on the book by Dan Brown, which takes place at the famous art gallery, which houses the Mona Lisa.

More than 7 million people have recently entered the walls of the Paris gallery.  Producers were impressed with the record number of visitors who travelled to the Louvre during the past year.  Experts believe that the tourism has been sparked by the book.

Ron Howard, who directed the film, was given special permission to film on location at the Louvre.
