Read this/saw this. The book was great, but the movie is ok, I couldn't quite figure out what all the hype was about. Yes, Philip Seymour Hoffman is great as always, but the story felt very rushed, which made it hard to get a sense of the emotional side of what was going on. I felt like I was just being told what to think rather than deciding for myself. BUT, I love watching a movie and then finding out that someone unexpected is in it, who you also happen to love, ie Catherine Keener and Amy Ryan. The style was also beautiful, very much in line with the Mad Men look that's become so popular.
