OMG!!! i love orange Wednesdays!!! I went to see The Lovely Bones last night (on a full stomach, thanks to pizza express 2-4-1). I have to say, it's the best film I've seen in a looooong time. The acting was spot on. I actually love Saoirse Ronan, she has certainly grown up since Atonement. Surprisingly, I would say this is a film you HAVE to see on the big screen for the visual effects of the 'purgatory' which Susie Salmon (a young girl who is visually murdered by a neighbour) becomes trapped in before she can reach her heaven. The title is a little philosophical in the sense that, by the end and from beyond the grave, Susie has surrounded the people she loves with the essence of her 'lovely bones'.
Just see it, I can't stop thinking about it. Fine, I'll admit it, I even cried at it.
The story has affected me so much that I'm off to buy the book right now ... peace x
