Never read the book, but WOW, that movie stands out in my mind as AH-MAZING. Ewan McGregor was the epitome of charm in this hilarious and magical film. And of course, I have been a long-time fan of Albert Finney. I have to say I also thoroughly enjoyed Steve B. as the failed poet.

That's a relief. I actually liked his writing, but the book did NOT draw me in the way the series did.

I'm sure NO ONE will remember or relate to this post, but I'll be honest that the first book that came to mind was the film SOMEWHERE IN TIME, the most tragically romantic movie I have watched to date (though very dated at this point). I loved it so much I read the book by famed horror writer (!!) Richard Matheson. The ending, to me, was far better in the film. I saw this film as a young child and thought, as an adult, I could enjoy watching it again without having my heart ripped out. Nope. I cried buckets, just like I did as a child.
