Read it, loved it. Re-reading it before the movie comes out xd mrgreen . I kind find it odd that Ken Watanabe is the only authenic Japanese person in the movie confused not that I don't like Zhang Ziyi xd .

Haven't been able to free up any time to read it. It's been sitting on my shelf collecting dust for months now.

My sister's lending me the book for a couple of weeks, so I'll be reading it. I started it already, and it's pretty good.

So here's the story...
My friend Louis's birthday was today (December 24th), so we went to see Memoirs of a Giesha as he chose it. After being persuaded by Louis and Spamster, I rushed to read the 500 page novel in two days - which I thouroughly enjoyed. Unfortunately the movie did not come close to the low standard I had for it. I accept that movies are never as good as the books they are based on - that is just how things are (ie Harry Potter, Narnia....). But without reading the book I am puzzled to see how anyone could follow such a jagged movie. Granted, Pumpkin, Memaha (sp) and even Chiyo (old and young) were good actresses. At some points I would even say the same for the Chairmen. But the plot was butchered! Important, IMPORTANT events were dropped, characters were completely dropped out (Chiyo's danna and grannys role almost entirely evaporated).
Pffft. What a waste of 10.95 (increased prices for winter break).

Mozzarella So here's the story... My friend Louis's birthday was today (December 24th), so we went to see Memoirs of a Giesha as he chose it. After being persuaded by Louis and Spamster, I rushed to read the 500 page novel in two days - which I thouroughly enjoyed. Unfortunately the movie did not come close to the low standard I had for it. I accept that movies are never as good as the books they are based on - that is just how things are (ie Harry Potter, Narnia....). But without reading the book I am puzzled to see how anyone could follow such a jagged movie. Granted, Pumpkin, Memaha (sp) and even Chiyo (old and young) were good actresses. At some points I would even say the same for the Chairmen. But the plot was butchered! Important, IMPORTANT events were dropped, characters were completely dropped out (Chiyo's danna and grannys role almost entirely evaporated). Pffft. What a waste of 10.95 (increased prices for winter break). This is probably one of the worst Decembers in the world of movies. Usually there is at least one huge hit. This year we have crap like Memoirs of a Geisha (the book was good, though), Narnia, and King Kong.
