This was one of the best books i have ever read! I can’t wait to see the movie!
I whole-heartedly agree with Derek’s comment above. The book was sensational–a very powerful and heart-breaking memoir. The only shame about the movie is the refusal of the producers to use the book’s name: Another Bullshit Night in Suck City. Of course, I can understand their reasoning behind the change, but the original title would certainly attract more attention than Being Flynn. It opens this week in my area at one of the local art houses–I will be in attendance.
