I've never read the book, but the movie is so visual (and auditory)
that I can hardly imagine the book being better!!!! It's a strange
film, but I've watched it through twice in a row on my computer, and
then, later that week, it was on TCM (in Polish) and I watched it
again, and then, again later in the week... I've watched it many times
now, and I never tire of it. I don't know why... It's not exactly an
exciting movie, but it is a deeply movie in completely unusual ways...
It's not like any other film I've ever watched, oh, and the visual
effects are _stunning_! That's one thing that keeps drawing me back to
it... It's convincing in unusual ways...
(It also reminds me of the ship Marathon) for some reason...) ;-)
