[Sonja · Rating 1 out of 5]

This is more of a moviescript with behind the scenes information of the movie than a book. I was expecting a book hence the low rating. The movie is one of my favourites though

[Brian J · Rating 4 out of 5]

Excellent script full of raw dialogue. Darkly comic, but strange and sad, too.
