Vile Bodies
Jul. 19th, 2005 04:47 pmWe watched Bright Young Things over the weekend, which is Stephen Fry's adaptation of Vile Bodies. I'd only read middling reviews of it, but I thought it was extremely good, although depressing even tho' a happy ending had been tagged on for some reason. Extra nerdy points for fans of the Dune miniseries(es): James McAvoy and Alec Newman were in it, who play (Young) Leto and Paul Atreides, respectively.
HPB landed yesterday morning and to be honest I found it a slog and not really all that engaging... and yet somehow still better than OotP... I've been enjoying reading people's comments about it much more. Perhaps I am just in a bad mood, since I have been grumpy about the end of season 4 of Babylon 5 as well.
