Talk:Running with Scissors (film)

message: most of the premise is ripped from the back of the book 67.188.43.41)
*That's because it's an adaptation of the book. You see, that means the book is based on the book.66.194.109.193
yeah i realize that, what i mean is that the premise section of the article is basically ripped from the back cover of the book. 67.188.43.41)
Towards the end of the movie, didn't Bookman try to kill the doctor with scissors (thus making the Trivia section need an edit)?
:A key aspect of the book is the narrator's progress through adolescence, but the film has one actor, Joseph Cross (age 19) unconvincingly play the central role throughout most of the movie, including scenes where the character is age 12 or 13
That should not be in an encyclopedia. If I can find the correct tag to add the article I will.. otherwise hopefully someone bolder than me reads this page =) Themania 12:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
