Loved the book and the movie too!!!

Rating: 8/10 (15 June 2016)

I had braced myself to expect the movie not to live up to the book. I was pleasantly surprised! The casting of the main characters was the best I have experienced in a film in many, many years. The screenplay is a seamless adaptation of the novel, keeping the focus on Lou and Will. The minor characters get enough exposure in the film to tell the story so that it all makes sense. Lou's quirky style of dress and personality was superb. While the performance may not receive a major acting award, it is nonetheless engaging and moving.The interplay between Will and Lou is balanced and nuanced. The ending will haunt me for sometime to come.
