Is is just me, or does it seem like a lot of the conversations that the film-makers had about the book are highly reminiscent of the way discussions go forward on the Downs? I'm not saying that they and we reach the same conclusions (or that we or they ever really do!) just that the film-makers, like us around here, tend to debate and discuss things like evil, power, addiction, free will, etc etc etc and how these 'big baggy ideas' can work (or, in the case of the film makers, be made to work) in a story about characters who look and feel like real people.
