The book is amazing!!! Don't know why I didbt read it sooner!!!!!! So after reading this beautiful book I decided to watch the movie. I know that books are always better but Damn. I couldn't even watch the entire movie.
Read the book people!!!!!!
I loved the film but loved the book even more.
Get me a bromide! And put some gin in it!
I think most people who read the book first and then see the movie, love the book and hate the movie (for any book/movie, not just this one). I saw the movie first and then read the book and I love both.
shareI've always thought this. Every time I watch a movie and then read the book, I like both, but when I read the book, and then watch the film, I hate the film. For instance I saw the first two Harry Potter films before I read the books, and adore them! Then I read all of the books, and hated the rest of the films. Lol fascinating how that works.
shareThe book isn't a good representation about the geisha world at all. You can read a good chapter for chapter critique why here:

The book is a better representation than this movie.
shareNeither is a good representation. Golden juices up a lot of things and makes it seem that the geisha world is full of backstabbing, bullying b.....s. But the LJ account explains more in detail the mistakes.
I don't think anyone with good sense took the book or the movie as an accurate representation of anything. It is just fiction, but it was an enjoyable story.
shareYestarday i finished the book and then i searched fot the movie i cound not watch more the 20 min, the book is amazing! Its always the same with books and movies!
