Lots of email along these lines.
You thought the movie was great? Really? I look forward to you expanding on this, especially after you have read the book. The book is indeed wonderful — and very conservative. It has many provocative things to say about the state of the West, and particularly Europe. The movie either stripped these messages from the story entirely, or it so changed their context so dramatically as to make precisely the opposite point. I won’t expand on this here, since you may not have read the book, but see, particularly, what it does with immigration and euthanasia. Not that there is anything in here that would lead to a posting, but I prefer to remain anonymous. Keep up the good work.
Me: Fair enough, but isn’t the same old story with nearly every good book that’s made into a movie? Anyway, I look forward to reading it shortly.
