If you are a true fan of this movie, read the book it is based on. I was amazed how good a read it was and how deep each character was. Of course there are some changes, as there always are with movie adaptations. The biggest of these is that the character of Phillip's grandfather does not exist in the book. That character in the book is a man named Howard who was a former big game hunter and game warden at Phillip's stepfather's hotel in Kenya.

There is great development of the characters of Jacmel and Louise and the ending in the book is much better. The character of Bulloch is also very complex and the dynamic between Bulloch and his Constable is captivating.

The book was written by Alan Schofield. Read it and then watch the movie again. It will give you a completely different perspective.
