"Kite Runner" - The movie
Edited on Fri Dec-14-07 08:25 PM by YankeyMCC
I know this is the book group but I remember several people here have read the book (including me) I was wondering if anyone planned to see the movie this weekend? I saw the first TV ad for it yesterday and noted that it is rated PG13 - that makes me wonder how they managed that considering some of the rather intense scenes and subject matter. But I guess as long as you don't show a nipple the rating gurus don't care. :shrug:

But on the other hand it might mean the story is blunted and watered down for the movie version.

2. Hard to beat the book.
The book was too good to be made into a movie. I think I will pass this one up.
