Most of us have had the situation of liking a book more than the adaptation necessary for creating a film from a popular book.  This happened to me today or at least half of it did.  I have not read the highly acclaimed book The Goldfinch and I went to see the film.  Well goodness, it was Tuesday special of $5  for  a matinee  film AND   free popcorn. I am glad I spent only $5 on the ticket as I didn’t really enjoy the film very much.  Those of you who have read my reviews know I pretty much just like film but not this time.  I don’t think I will bother to read the book even knowing the character development is much more indept and the plot less confusing.

I’d say$5 is about what The Goldfinch is worth!

Have any of you see  the film or read the book?  I would love to hear from you . . . .
