Just watched the bone temple. Really good. Can't wait for the 3rd film.

Train dreams. Watch it. A beautiful movie.

Also read the book, which is even better.

Fantastic book! Surprised to see it pop up on here.

Maybe there's hope for us GG'ers after all. As in most cases, the book is better (IMO), but they did a great job adapting it for the big screen too. Great acting and interesting characters. William H. Macy delivers another great performance, which reminds me I really have to watch Boogie Nights again. And Fargo.

The book is so obscure I was wondering if the film was even the same story. You might like Stoner (or might have already read it) as I think it has a similar feel. It has nothing to do with marijuana by the way.

I have and I did - quite a few years back, though, so might be time for a reread. Great book.

Train dreams yesterday became nominated for best picture at the Oscars too.
