Me: *turns on RIPLEY* RIPLEY: Rome 1961 Me: Why 1961? This book was released in 1955? RIPLEY: *plays Roy Orbison's In Dreams* Me: Oh it's for the music. Me: *googles* Me: Goddammit the song came out in 1963!

For the record I don't like being like this.

I just reread the book, I'm going to be like this the whole time. But at least I'm doing it by myself!

It's really hard for me to watch this kind of adaptation that feels so differently about the source material than I do. I don't think I'll be able to get through it.

Like they keep changing the details that I particularly love, details that there is no good reason to change except to be LESS subtle! I can't stand it!
