Why did I watch it?
- A movie based on one of my favorite novels by one of my favorite authors and featuring arguably the most attractive woman in the world. Couldn’t wait.
- Bruce Robinson came out of hiding to direct it, and I consider Withnail And I to be unimpeachable.
Random IMDB Trivia:
- The final black and white still shot (also the cover photo of the book) at the very end of the movie is not in Puerto Rico (where the movie takes place) but in Aruba. The author is shown sitting on a bench at the Aruba Palm Beach Club (with a bottle of Amstel beer). In the background is the Aruba Caribbean Hotel, the first resort hotel to be constructed on Palm Beach. The author visited Aruba while living in Puerto Rico.
Netflix Rating: 4 out of 5
1 Thing I Liked About It: The club scene with Amber Heard. Great old surfer music, great dancing.
1 Thing I Didn’t Like About It: The moral message seemed a bit murky. Some departures from the book. Aaron Eckhart’s character was thin.
