all three of those movies listed are great movies and I am a big fan of Wed Anderson as a director...but if someone asked me..what's your favourite film, I am not sure if I could answer that as it depends on moods...that said, this always comes to mind first. The only reason why it never got any academy award was because it was competing against schindlers list. Peter Postelthwaite should have won an oscar,

correcto...the only thing wrong with it is U2 in the opening credits

books were better

I have never really understood why people make this comment. Books are always better because they can say so much more and there is no time / budget limits. However that doesnt make the movie bad. Apples and pears...

well of course...99% of the time it comes down to how you visualise a character and how the director does...and 99% of the time you will never like the directors impression over what your mind tell you. I am not really a "books better" person, but there have been instances where a whole plot critical to the story has been ommitted

Gerry Conlon: What I remember most about my childhood is holding your hand. My wee hand in your big hand, and the smell of tobacco. I remember, I could smell the tobacco in the palm of your hand. When I want to feel happy, I try to remember the smell of tobacco.

Giuseppe Conlon: Oh, my heart.
