Author Umberto Eco was dismayed when he heard that Sir Sean Connery was cast in the part of William of Baskerville. His dissatisfaction with the finished movie was reportedly the reason for his reluctance to sell the movie rights to any of his other novels. However, in 2011, he gave a relatively positive review of the movie: "A book like this is a club sandwich, with turkey, salami, tomato, cheese, lettuce. And the movie is obliged to choose only the lettuce or the cheese, eliminating everything else - the theological side, the political side. It's a nice movie".
