jazzy_daveLast night i watched Captain Corelli's Mandolin on a DVD from one of my charity shop visits. I thought it would be a film i would not like. I was wrong and thoroughly enjoyed it. Usually i am not a person who watches films abased around a war, but as this was a love story, a romance, it made for a tense backdrop. Nicholas Cage was brilliant in it and for John Hurt looking so Greek. He actually grew a mustache for the role.
I have not read the book that the film is based on, and i doubt i will get to read the book now that i have seen the film. I prefer o read the book first, then if it has been made into a film, watch the film afterwards.
