The Book!
I grew up reading the book "Our Hearts Were Young and Gay", and if you thought the movie was funny, you have no idea! This book STILL makes me laugh till my sides ache, even though I must've read it 15 times already. When I saw the movie, it was actually a disappointment. They made a great effort, but it really passed over a lot of great stuff. And it didn't really capture the tone of true hilarity that exists in the words of Cornelia Otis Skinner and Emily Kimbrough, the women whose story this is. Again, if you found this little gem of a movie, please go the next step and read the book. It may be a bit hard to find, but believe me, this unsung classic is worth it!
