Viewing Notes

Impulse grab at the library based on the story and actors. But wow what a dud. I imagine that the book that this is based on is much more spicy and provocative that somehow was not captured in this film adaptation. Because all the components are there including a great cast. There are a few flashes that never really manifest as they should given the plot. Disappointing.
