I liked the book(although I did not find the Meaning of Life in it, shock!), but it seemed awfully...internal to be a film. Lots of thinking, worrying, and meditating.
I ended up liking the book a lot more than I thought I would, partly out of sheer bloody-mindedness after seeing some of the user reviews on Amazon. If someone hits my rage hot buttons, and I swear I will love the thing they hate just to spite 'em!
(In this case, it was all the scoldy "I can't believe she was conventionally attractive and had a spouse who wanted kids and she had the nerve to be clinically depressed, that selfish bitch" complaints--because, you know, depression is so entirely contingent on outside circumstances and nobody with any material worldly goods has any right to fucked-up brain chemistry and nothing cheers up someone in the grips of suicidal ideation like being told, "Hey, other people have it so much worse, snap out of it!" All the proud, smug, self-righteous depression ignorance on parade made me adore that book to bits where the actual book itself had inspired mere mild engagement and pleasure.)
(Gee, I guess that hot button is still hot. Sorry for the rant!)

Or the entire production team was like "Dude! Italy! India! The studio would pay for us to go to Italy and India!" But other than that, yeah, it's pretty much all about
The mess in my brain, let me show you it, and also all the amazing food I ate,
neither of which sound much like a movie.

It's really two separate movies, namely
A Beautiful Mind
and
Hannibal.
Oh, nice. Idris almost has me convinced to see that movie he's in with Chris Brown. I'd rather he use his powers for...well, cheesy good?
no shit. if you see that movie, let me know, k? the ads make it look worse and worse.

There is no reason to suffer this fate when you still haven't seen his starmaking role in the best series on tv. IJS.
I'M ON DISC TWO.
Tsk. Don't make erika cut a bitch.
