Where the Wild Things Are
Oct. 23rd, 2009 02:28 pm"There must be more to life than having everything!"
--Maurice Sendak
Yes, that Maurice Sendak of Where the Wild Things Are, a book that I found extremely creepy when I read it as a child, but now as an adult I would really like to see the movie, which just came out! Don't quite know how they can make such a short book into a film, but, hey, it's been done before. I remember from the book thinking that Max was quite a nasty little kid, a protagonist I kind of wanted to smack in the face, but I think the movie's softened him considerably.
