THE
DA VINCI CODE
Columbia Pictures
While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) receives
an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been
murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher.
While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover
it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci -- clues visible
for all to see -- yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.
Langdon joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and learns
the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion -- an actual secret society
whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci,
among others.
In a breathless race through Paris, London, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match
wits with a faceless powerbroker who seems to anticipate their every move. Unless
Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's
ancient secret -- and an explosive historical truth -- will be lost forever.
