why this movie didn't work for me
I loved this book. I mean really appreciated and adored this book. This book was a discovery for me. When I found out it was being made into a movie, sure I had reservations but I was open. The movie made Jimmy Zoole out to be a prigg. What was with the puppets, Jimmy's heart was in his job. The theme of the book was a man who worked his entire life at something he loved but never received any acclaim. That was the heart breaker. Working at something for most of his adult life and never receiving his due. Then pooring himself into writing a book and having it senslessly destroyed. This theme would have made the movie more enjoyable. It would have made his trip over the edge of reason more believable. So for everyone who seen the movie please just read the book.
