O! I am so disappointed to hear about Lust, Caution. I was so excited to see a movie being made with two of my favourite pretty people in it - thanks for the heads-up before I had a chance to be miffed by it (and I would have been miffed, given that it is a bit of an exercise to get out atm, and I don't like to feel that the evening has been wasted).

And I would be very interested to hear what the Earthsea adaptation is like. I was so ropeable when I heard that they'd whitewashed the cast that I've never been able to bring myself to consider watching it, even though (or is it because?) I love those books.
