This is a wonderful little movie. Well worth a rental at your local video store. I'd never heard of it until it made it's way to cable. Some have criticized it for not living up to the book, but then again few movies can truly compare to their literary counterpart. I for one haven't read the book (although I may give it a try), and so everything was original for me. A clever plot that left me guessing until the end. See this beautiful, quiet, and intriguing movie. You'll be glad you did.
