Book Emma Thompson was reading ...


Did anyone see the title of the book Emma Thompson was reading throughout the film. She seemed to be showing the book cover a lot, as though it was significant, but I couldn't see the title (and have now forgotten the author!).

I don't know if this applies, but check out the IMDB "FAQ" section. Apparently, the book is not real, but created for the movie.

Thanks, NoraPinephrin. I thought the book was somehow relevant as the character kept showing it to the audience - how wrong was I?!

From the mentioned FAQ's:

'[...]Since neither the author nor the book are important to the plot, they were made up for the movie rather than using a real book and then having to secure and pay for the rights'

Interesting sounds like the movie producers would have had to pay for the rights to use the book to the author, you'd think it would be the other way around, as in 'product placement', unless I'm reading it the wrong way around.

(why am I replying to a 6 year old thread?) !!

-B!LL!
