The book is really really good. Maddening, but enthralling. I read it faster than any book I've read in quite a while. I will be very interested to see it portrayed on film.

This book is incredible. I'd highly suggest reading it before the movie comes out.

So that you can proclaim that the book was better after watching the movie?

Interesting... they gonna give DiCaprio a cameo and another chance to play Hoover?

Kidding, but you're right that this is a fantastic book. Definitely has really good movie potential.

I actually think it might be better, if you want the drama in the movie, to wait until after the movie to read the book. The scope of the movie will likely be pretty narrow so if you're into the story the book will give it a lot more context.

Thanks for the recommendation. I just ordered the book and will read it over the holidays.

I'm awaiting this with the excitement of a new Marvel movie.

Leo+DeNiro+Scorsese? I mean come on. We've had two but never all three in the same project. (With the exception of The Audition, which I don't count.)

Can't wait.

"I know Marty's trying to make a movie that's probably the last Western that would be made like this, and yet, with this incredible social document underneath it, and the violence and the environment. I think it'll be like nothing we've ever seen, in a way. And so this one is, to me, one for the ages."

I've started the book a couple times, but it hasn't captured me yet. I guess I'll need to wade through a bit longer to try to get in deeper.
