I finished reading The Book Thief a while ago and I watched the movie
trailer just now and I am here to tell you how I felt about it.
When I was reading the book I imagined the main character, the book thief,
much younger than the actress in the movie trailer and not as beautiful of
course. So I was thrown off when I watched the trailer. The dad was perfect but
the mom…shouldn't she be a bit older. Again, she looked too young for her
character.
And I don’t know if I should give my imagination a 10 out of 10 because I
totally gave the book thief the same hair style that I saw in the movie
trailer. I guess I lived in that era without even knowing about it.
Then Max appeared and I was lost for words. Max's character was the
introduction of the climax of this book. He had this strong presence that made
you wanted to know everything about him right away. So I am really excited to
see what the actor of Max's character has in store for us.
I kept smiling at the tiny scenes they showed in the trailer. Like when
she was holding snow in her hands. That part in the book had a huge consequence
on somebody. Very special to my heart!
And Rudy
Well he didn’t appear much throughout the trailer but he doesn’t look
bad.
The picture and the directing (so far) looked like something out of
Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings.
In others words, it looked great.
In conclusion, I am super excited for this movie and I cannot wait to
watch it
After all, this book is about a girl who finds her voice thanks to
reading stolen books.
Watch the trailer for yourself
