  • I haven't seen the movie, so I can't speak for it. However, I know it has been harshly criticized, one I read while it was still considered to be "in production." So, I'm not sure, definitely a Netflix for me.

    Edit: Agreed on Javier Bardem and I also enjoy James Franco. I hope it's better than what is to be expected, especially since Ed is sort of involved in it.

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.

    mmmmm I like ALL those men... thought the book was ok... might be an alright film. Was in Italy a few weeks ago wondering if they would make a film about it... I was mainly thinking about the 'eat' part of it :mrgreen:
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    ummm ... a note to all the guys: avoid this at all costs ... this is worth a "i think i might have ebola" excuse ...

    if you are female and divorced and have read the book and think jennifer aniston makes good movies ... consider seeing this on dvd ...

    :mrgreen:

    ok ... as you can tell, i didn't really like it but maybe some will ...

    Someone got this book for my wife. She made it about a chapter or so in before deciding the main character was a whiny bitch and put it down.

  • FYI...... Long Road is also featured in this movie. About half way in. It sounds like it was reworked a bit and has the vibe of better days

    When will Julia Roberts go away? This playing the same role in slightly different ways is ridiculously old.

    Same here - I read a couple chapters, gave the book away. That woman is loathsome. A self-centered twit.

    Is Eddies song even in the movie, or just on the soundtrack? I know two people who saw it and said they didnt hear it.

    long road as mentioned earlier plays in the middle ... while better days finishes the movie with a slightly different arrangement and then it is also the song for the closing credits ...
