    But that’s the whole point of the character. Miranda’s death is written directly from his viewpoint, and he is not a compassionate man (rather, a sociopath), so he describes her death with no more sadness or disappointment than he would if one of his butterflies had died.

    I found the book to be far, far better than the film.

    NOTHING about this film is like the book. i personally found the book to be shit anyway.

    I know. She is described as a long hair blonde in the book and that’s how I’d expected it.

    Why is Miranda a redhead and not a blonde?
