I just discovered they made a movie of the book. I just watched the trailer and it looks good. I did read the book. It was beautiful although heart-wrenching as was his second book. I am not sure if I could see the movie without crying through most of it.
Anyone else planning to see it?

Also, just came across this article concerning the young boys in the movie who have left Afghanistan due to fear from the movie.

Yeah, it was supposed to come out last month, but they pushed it back because of the boys. I hope to see it with my book club!

I'm not sure if I'll see the movie. I have a feeling it won't be anywhere near as good as the book. I just feel like they're not gonna do it justice.

I wrote about that two months ago here: http://bookobsessed.com/index.php?showtopic=2761

I always want to read a book first before I watch the movie.
You can make up your own faces to the characters.
