Riding to a movie just now, it came to my attention that I had not been in a car for 5 weeks prior to that, quite possibly a record for me. The movie was Big Fish - adaptation of the book I read back in December. With Ewan McGregor, Alison Lohman, Steve Buscemi, Danny Devito, Albert Finney, Jessica Lange and Helena Bonham Carter in the cast (and with Tim Burton at the helm), there was no way they were going wrong. Nevertheless, it was a very good translation of a story that did not look like it would survive the adaptation to film. Read it, see it.
