    For once the movie is more superb than the book. That's a first.

    Never thought much of Norton, until I saw this. It was as if his manager had been hiding his actual range for decades.

      He was good, except his accent. He was supposed to be English, but his accent wasn’t

      His range is exactly what's so impressive about him. (Did you see American History X? Or Primal Fear?)

      Edward Norton is an excellent actor. Thing is, the industry tends to dislike him, he can be too intense and difficult.

    the best scene is the first meeting between Kitty and the nun:
    - "I describe myself as a member of the Church of England
    - which, I suppose, is an inoffensive way of saying that you don't believe in anything"

    Anyone who has read the book by Somerset, are these characters real or they were fictions, figments of Somerset's imaginations? BTW Someset often stayed at Raffles Hotel in Singapore, and there is a Somerset Station now.

      I read his "Razor's Edge", and I read somewhere that he based the main character on a real man who became a Hindu mystic, went celibate and lived like a hermit in his apartment. The way it was mentioned like that guy had reached real illumination

    Just a ordinary woman not perfect like u think - what exactly people mean by this. Make mistakes continously and apologise the same?

      "People". You mean the character. It means that ordinary people are flawed and that idealists suffer from immaturity.

    I hated how their relationship was the whole movie, I was looking forward to their coming back together and falling in love again but then she freaking finds out she’s pregnant and is from the other guy and I literally stopped the movie there and didn’t watch anymore lol

      In fact, she doesn't know who the father is. In the end, the boy who plays the kid looks like Edward Norton, so it can be a clue 😋

      Yeah let's ignore the fact that Charlie Townsend and all the Charlies and Chads out there had a choice not to pursue and bang someone else's wife- let alone cheat on his own wife with different women other than Kitty. You narcissist men with your double standards smh.
