I am torn. I've been meaning for a while to see the movie version of I Capture the Castle - because Mark Blucas is in it - only this weekend I finally got around to reading the book. Now I don't want to see a movie version, ever, because I loved it so much (*) and it's *perfect* in my head and I don't want it wrecked and no matter how good a movie is the characters won't look like they do in my head and bits will be changed/left out...

*imdbs*

Dude, Rose Byrne's in it too?

...I must see. I'm so weak.

But I'm not masochistic enough to look for the no-doubt awful fanfic.

For all of ten seconds.

(* [livejournal.com profile] marymac can attest to the fact of me barrelling into her room somewhere around page 160 demanding 'tell me she marries Simon!!')

Squee! Squee! That's one of my favourite books. It's just so sweet and funny and sad...

Maybe we should write our own fanfic. I've never seen any. The film is good, reasonably true to the book. Rose Byrne is especially good, which is important for Rose (Mortmain)'s character. I didn't know you liked her...

I think she does marry Simon, in four or five years when she's grown up a bit more. :)
