I disagree. So many crucial parts of the book were lazily omitted from the movie. Most important of these is Miranda's accent-- where did MS' come from? Also, the comic relief of Lily, who came off bitchy and inconsequential in the film. Personally, I miss the part with the private jet to chauffeur the HP books. Somehow I ended up sympathizing with Miranda because of all these missing pieces. Double agreement on Stanley Tucci and Simon Baker. We love us some Nigel, but Simon came off so plebeian as Christian. Whencely went the tall, dark, and handsome man of whom I fantasized while reading the book? (I'm hoping here I wasn't the only one keeping my fingers crossed that Bex would show up here.) Does anyone have a knife? I think I'm about to become a cutter...
