I'm reading The Never-Ending Story. Yes, the movie that scared me so much that I still have shivers when I think of the wolf thing and the poor horse drowning and even the skeleton in the attic...
Did a little 'background' research on the movie adaptation, and found that I've already read past where the movie ends. Because Bastian is starting to get annoying and I couldn't believe that Americans would put that in the movie. And, I bet they didn't make him a fat, pale kid. I seriously can't remember that.
I'm going to have to watch the damn movie now. I guess this is a kind of step, but I'm not really sure what. Oh yes, the author, Michael Ende, did not like the movie adaptation and took the producers to court. So, naturally, I'd like to know what he found so insulting.
Less than a week left of my wonderful holidays. This has to last me to the end of this year, when I get to experience a cold Christmas, with soggy, frozen English customs. Yeah! So far it has been great (these holdiays). Christmas, business, lots of beachiness and a little bit of sunburn (peeled twice now. I really 'ope it stops). All I needs is another few movies thrown in and a LOTR marathon (Friday night, Saturday day if anyone actually reads this anymore...)
And, I was going to start crafting, but had Craig and Shelley around for dinner instead. Watched Emma Thompson do the funny sob/cry thing in Sense and Sensibility. Have wanted to watch that since Geraldine mentioned it (Vicar of Dibley).
