I liked finding out the real story behind the poetic license in the movie. A lot of in depth details of their marriage.

If you like the word 'nipples' this is the book for you. Ideally your copy will have the dust jacket with the close up photo of the sequin pasties, but if not don't despair, nipples are mentioned a minimum of once per page with many pages exceeding that number. There are a few other words in the book as well but gosh I can't quite remember any of them at the moment.
