So that's why it was erotic but not so very spanky.

I enjoyed reading the excerpts you picked out and look forward to more.<br /><br />I read the book along time ago but I think the movie was a disappointment but isn't that always the case. <br /><br />The sexual chemistry between Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger, I thought was excellent.<br /><br />I'm still trying to find a copy of the book.<br /><br />Love,<br />Ronnie<br />xxronniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16402712634206383021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178998232488314107.post-74666115442878259922010-05-04T22:24:14.476-04:002010-05-04T22:24:14.476-04:00Hiya Hermione:)

It skirts around the whole BDSM thing, in my opinion, although it's been a while since I saw it. The book is a great deal better. I believe you can find it through Amazon, used.<br /><br />The end of the book? Well, I censored the final passage of my excerpt a teeny bit. It seemed that as they went farther and farther each day, it was implied that the end would be death. She had her breakdown the morning after he finally drew blood.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />HermioneHermionehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15395671806340391253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178998232488314107.post-78806637786335194802010-05-04T07:32:43.714-04:002010-05-04T07:32:43.714-04:00I meant the movie is a lite version of the book.I meant the movie is a lite version of the book.Karl Friedrich Gausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01229774469243094801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178998232488314107.post-74259317752001811912010-05-04T07:31:58.700-04:002010-05-04T07:31:58.700-04:00Hermione, what's your general assessment of th...Hermione, what's your general assessment of the book vis a vis the movie? Is it as good. These excerpts you post certainly seem well worth reading, and put the book in a somewhat different light, as perhaps a "lite" version of the book. I think in a book it's easier to "get away with" more edgy stuff than in a movie for mass consumption, even if it is restricted.<br /><br />I see a connection between the ending of the movie and the following lines from Leonard Cohen's song "No Cure for Love":<br /><br />"I see you on the subway, I see you on the bus,<br />I see you lying down with me and I see you waking up.<br />I see your hand, I see your hair, your bracelets and your brush,<br />And I call to you, I call to you, but I don't call soft enough..."Karl Friedrich Gausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01229774469243094801noreply@blogger.com
