Grab Some Popcorn...

I recently had a lovely e-mail discussion with Kara about possibly expanding our book club to include movies. We could watch a movie each book in conjunction with the book we are reading. Maybe it is a film that has some kind of connection to the book we are reading, or it could be completely random since it's up to whoever chooses the movie and book each time.

I think this could be fun and interesting. Although, I'm kinda a film geek, so any conversation about film makes me unnaturally enthusiastic. I was thinking that we could go with "Big Fish" this month since Kara already was discussing it in her response to Pat's post. Plus, I think that it would be interesting to discuss the different approaches to storytelling and circus life as portrayed in each.

What do you all think?

  2. I didn't really think anyone would be opposed to this idea, but I'm glad to hear that you all think it's a good idea. I'm looking forward to reading what everyone has to say about Big Fish since it's probably my favorite Burton film to date (even though it doesn't have Johnny Depp, which is rather unfortunate).
