I'm a little heavy boots about this whole movie business, but I should just get over it and try to enjoy Hollywood's spin on a favorite (like, top three) book. That said, I have high expectations. (I'm looking at you, Sandra Bullock and Tom Hanks---and especially you, Stephen Daldry.)
Fingers crossed. You?

Um... yes. Tom Hanks?! I dunno. Maybe I won't see it.
But, whomever they cast as Oskar had better be pretty awesome!
Makes me want to re-read this book!
oh!!! this was definitely one of my favorite books - recommended by you I think! I hope it's good in movie form.
if it's good it will make me feel like one hundred dollars.
i feel exactly the same way ali! and i love abby's comment.
Oh dear, Hanks and Bullock are in jeopardy of smearing their rom-comness all over this. I love Sandra, but wasn't Toni Collette free? Isn't Hanks a touch old?
I, too, will be heavy boots if this gets ruined--but it won't spoil the original awesomeness of the book. Also, it's about time someone tried to make a meaningful Sept. 11 movie.
This book always reminds me of you--and another Oscar.
ps. Have you ever tried oskarschell@hotmail.com?
No, but I've thought about it.
wow, I hadn't heard about the movie being made. One of my top three as well! The BEST opening paragraph.
I hope they do it justice.
