I loved the book and I loved the movie equally. Read the book first (after buying the dvd) and they really aren't the same...similar, but not the same...
But I loved them both. I count the movie as one of my all time favorites (with Whale Rider and Roman Holiday). The movie is beautifully done and tells the story it is meant to tell.
But the characters in the book! Wow! I just loved them all, well nearly all...the priest was a bit of a jerk.
There are basic similarities to Like Water for Chocolat ...more
