No, it's okay. Low-hanging joke.

I need to watch the whole thing someday. Only saw parts of it way back when the only way to watch a movie was to catch it on cable.

You really should. It's amazing.

If you've never read it, the book isn't terribly long! The movie is an excellent adaptation, though, still worth a watch.

I've been meaning to get back into reading, so I'll add it to my list. Thanks.
