Movies and Books, Books and Movies

It was only a matter of time before someone blogs about the infamous Fifty Shades of Grey. I went last Thursday at 10, super stoked about finally being able to see the movie I have been waiting to see since I finished the books almost two years ago and...I wasn't disappointed! Sure there were awkward moments (not for the reasons you think) that were brought about by dialogue in the book that you don't realize is weird until you hear it portrayed out loud. But other than that I was really happy to watch a movie that really does stick close to everything that happened in the book.

If you haven't read the books however and you're thinking of seeing the movie, I would highly recommend trying to have a quick read before then because it would be a whole lot more easier to follow along if you know what was happening in some of the gaps that the movie leaves off. That is one of the drawbacks of the movie, although it left out some of the more minor parts of the books, it didn't seem like it actually finished some of the scenes before they started a new one. So reading the book, like almost all other movies based on novels, would make it easier to understand some of what was left out.

So in conclusion, I am happy to see that the movie was able to live up to all the hype America gave it! Also, here are pictures of Jamie Dornan just because his face...
