Margaret Laurence - The Stone Angel

Post by genkav »

I've always been a fan of this novel, the setting, the story, like "the notebook" but so much more. If anyone hasn't been in the loop lol, the book has been made into a movie with "Juno's" Ellen Paige, and of course Elyn Burstyn in the title role. A little corny that it comes out on Mother's day, but i think it would make a great gift - especially if you grew up with this book (like me! lol).

I've read "The Stone Angel" a few years ago, that was published back in the 60's was it not?
I love "The Notebook" too. I definitely want to see the movie, Mother's Day works for me :)

this movie should be awesome. Apprently it portrays the book's ideas superbly. What more can you ask from a film? Anyone see the trailer for it yet?

I am sure i'll see it, as I am a movie buff myself.
