The Road - Book Becomes Movie


I read the book "The Road" months ago and I was very thrilled to find that now a film is out based on the book. The Road was written Cormac McCarthy, I don't know much about the film as I haven't seen it yet of course. Plan to see it this weekend if its in the theaters. The book was depressing and felt intensely real. At the time, I was always playing a video game, Fallout 3, which you may or may not have heard of or played but it sort of fit in with the general theme of a post apocalyptic world and people attempting to survive in it. The Road is less about what happened and more focused on the two central characters of a father and son. I won't give away any of the novel, but I recommend you read the novel before seeing the movie.
