Read the book.
See the movie.
Both are splendid!
The book has much more in the way of nuances and character development. It is fluid, gripping and heartbreaking.
The movie is stunning and remarkably well done. The visual contrast between the soft memories of childhood and the reality of a war torn France are stirring.
This isn't a movie for kids - language and s.e.x. But, for those of us of age... whoa, very HOT.
Keira Knightly needs to eat a cookie or something, but she's so beautiful that she's a skeleton doesn't matter.
James McAvoy is oh what's the word... dreamy. If he keeps picking roles like this, and the one in The Last King of Scotland (which you should see - again, without the kids) he'll be an icon before you know it.
To recap:
Read the book
See the movie
Keira - eat something!
