Plch thank you! I didn't know about the film!
>>> I looked at the trail, definitely interesting.

Looks stunningly good doesn't it.

I have searched my shelves until I am boss-eyed but cannot find the book; there are *cough* many books upon many shelves in many locations so I'll pretend I'm not looking for it and it should leap out at me.


Plch *stunning* is the word, you are right :)
he he, I know the feeling about books hiding away...

Sorry Tanuj - I worried and worried at just how they could get this book into a coherent visual - IMHO they did it. Did It With Kudos on top.

Caveat: watched with a group of friends and only those who have read the book understood the film and only one of those who had read and watched was MEH over the film.

The film to avoid is The Hobbit if you are a purist.

Like the chart a lot :)

Another one to bypass - if you're into thrillers - is Jack Reacher.

hahaha - thanks for the heads up. Keep me up to date with your findings - we can cover more ground with both of us watching.
:O)


Cecily Good graphic in your comment, and I saw the film with my husband, who hadn't read the book. He claimed to have followed it! Hmm
;)
