If ever a book needed to be made into a film, this is it. I hope it does the book justice as it is a magnificent read. Couldn't put it down.

the movie was superb, i left the cinema with mascarra stained cheeks and very soggy tissues! Eric bana and racheal mcadams' performances were outstanding, i as the audiance could 100% feel the love shared between the two. just bought the book for an english project and can not wait to start reading it. i defy anyone who has not watched this film!

Book was wonderful..Don't think that the movie gave it justice, but movies rarely give justice to novels. Still, an amazing film with great actors!
