The book and the movie seem to go together, almost like they were meant for each other. I don't think I would like the movie with out the details give reading and I don't think I would like the reading with out the visuals the movie gives. The story is interesting but I feel it has no attractiveness and one really has to fight to get to it. the reading is quite ascriptive and elaborate as oppose to the movie where many pieces seemed assumed that the viewer knew. However, the part of the story given seemed somewhat interesting.
