Not having seen the movie, yet, I can tell you I'll like it more than I did the book. The first and second parts of the book were so different that I wonder if part of the novel was ghostwritten. (I suspect the movie is based on the first and better half of the book??.) There is a terrific build up with engaging characters and then THUD: It turns into a self-gratifying, culinary ramble with obnoxious amounts of name dropping. Very disappointing given the promise of the early chapters.
