Extremely loud and incredibly close

Ironically, one of the movies I have been waiting

anxiously to see is also my facebook

book club pick for the month of February.

EXTREMELY LOUD AND INCREDIBLY CLOSE

I love reading books then seeing the movie

but always in that order.

Very rarely do I go opposite and see the movie

then read the book. It just messes up my enjoyment

of the book.

Yet, this one I will, for sure, read.

I loved the movie and unlike my bestie, Laurie

and my big sis, Veronica I used no kleenex.

Nope didn't even shed one tear.

I think it was because I was so into the movie

and figuring out all the little nuances that

I forgot the touching parts of the movie.

The movie also left me with so many questions.

Like the relationship of the grandparents...

Many others but I don't want to post them here

and give away anything of the movie for you out there

if you have not yet seen it.

It is a must-see. For me, this is one

that I hope "the book is better than the movie"

because I have so many questions left unanswered.

Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock play the parents

but the real "one man show" is this little actor,

Thomas Horn is the one who should be

nominated for some award.

He was believable in his role, so darn good.

Makes me wonder how in the heck do kids so young

get this ability? Has to be nothing less of pure talent,

God-given.

Hoping my questions are answered as I begin tonight

to become absorbed in the book.

It's Jillaxing night!!!! Can't wait to see the bean!
