I liked the movie better, actually; Hinton’s narrators have a disingenuous way of talking about themselves that gets a bit irritating after a while, and it works better as film melodrama.   Also, I used to have a large crush on the guy who played Mason.   Please don’t start, I took enough shit for it twenty years ago.
