Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

If I have not yet read The Book Thief (I know, I know), would it be a mistake to see the movie first?

Oh, false alarm -- it's only playing at 9:30pm, way too late for me. OK, next question: Which movie should I see, American Hustle or 12 Years a Slave ? I will also be seeing Inside Llewyn Davis on the same day, if that makes a difference. (Movie Day!)

I always think it's better to see the movie first, because the book is probably better, and that way you won't be disappointed.
