The Secret Life of Bees.

[pouringsand]

I've just finished reading Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. I tend to do a lot of my reading in public places... I meandered through Berendt's Savannah during slow times at the polling place on Election Day, during my languid dinner breaks at restaurants, that sort of thing. I'm not sure I could count the number of times someone came up

didn't get your call until a few minutes ago! :( i was watching a film myself, dead man, which was quite good. it was very slow paced which was why i was surprised 2 hours could pass so fast! midnight in the garden of good and evil is a very cool film but never read the book.

anyway, we will get together soon.

I haven't seen the film and don't know that I will, but I read the spoiler to see if there were any huge, obvious deviations from the novel and it sounds like it more or less adheres to the basic track. The person who did the write up doesn't mention it much so I'm wondering if religion and spirituality, both jointly and separately, are as important to the film as they are to the novel
