weekend & stardust review

It was great having around. Getting to do stuff he doesn’t often get to do, exploring new restaurants, enjoying old ones. Checking out comic book shops, and thrift stores. Chatting with Philippe, , , and . We also saw Stardust.

I hope it’s not another 5 years before I see him, even if we aren’t weekend boyfriends next time.

Stardust is a great movie. I’d say it’s based on the book, but it’s not a retelling of the book. It’s a love story, and an action movie. A bit akin to the princess bride, but more grown up in a variety of ways. It’s fast paced but they still get time for character development in. I recommend watching the movie before reading the book, but I recommend doing both in whatever order occurs to one.

  1. The movie and the book are both really good! I read the book first. I think the order doesn’t matter as long as the reader/audience realizes that there are a lot of differences and takes each for what they are, rather than wanting one to be just like the other.

    If that makes sense!

    I could make up a whole list of “I like this better in the book, I like that better in the movie”.

  2. Stardust is based on a book? None of the reviews I’ve read mentioned that. I’m surprised. I can’t wait to see that movie! Michelle Pieffier looks like she does a great job in the movie.
