The Rules Of Attraction
They fucked about with the storyline but captured the tone of the book completely perfectly. Which is why it is my favourite film ever.

Yeah, his sexface is pretty rank
The scene with Ian Somerhalder in the hotel more than makes up for it though. I like that.

You knows it!
I actually love the whole thing when they're at the hotel, Dick is the best incidental character in any film ever. EVER.

Ker-Ching! They got it right on the money.
my a-level english lit teacher lent me his copy of less than zero a fortnight after it was published in the uk (fuck me, that makes me feel well old ;-( what with christmas coming on!) and it blew my fucking mind!
IT BLEW MY FUCKING MIND!
sorry for shouting, but BEL has long been a fave author of mine and to see a novel translated to the screen like TROA was does the author the opposite of a dis-service which i guess is a service.
the hotel new hampshire*, on the other fucking hand was an absolute travesty of a clockwork abortion of a film. it really serviced the novel and the author, but in more of an arse-rapey way. tear lubricated**.
wanted to like the film, from knowing the novel, but...
it spoiled the novel for me :-(
is it wrong to hate that?
*John Irving. Incest, bears, death, rape, sorrow (obviously), schlagobbers(sp?) etc.
**Jimmy Carr.
