Update

Atonement is finally in a theatre near me! Jen and I went to see it this evening and it was amazing. Definitely worth the wait. There was a part of me that was a little apprehensive before I saw it. One because I had waited so long and could very well had built it up so much in my mind that it wouldn't deliver. And, two, because I loved the book so much that I was worried that I would feel disappointed with how they adapted it. Neither of those did I need to worry about though. It delivered and then some and is one of the only movies I've seen that I can say was as good as the book. And trust me, for me that is huge. So, hooray!
