Great actors but they completely rewrote the ending and made it make no sense. In the original Croker discovers stoicism and accepts that he doesn’t need all his wealth. They also turned the racial thing into total nonsense. Could have done it in a way that was still SJW but made sense.

decent book. not as good as bonfire. read ages ago. last TW book i read was charlotte simmons in like 06' or 07' and it sucked.

however, only book that i've read which directly attributed to me getting laid was charlotte simmons.

in early 08', i spent the night in elk city, OK traveling solo on I-40. i went to a bar. at the bar there was a 21 year old girl boring 3 rednecks with talk about the book she had just read: charlotte simmons. i leaned over and said that i'd read it, and of course she didn't believe that any man in an elk city bar could have read a book for fun.

i later found out she was the fuckup black sheep of her family as both her parents were Dr's. in town and her brother was also a radiologist out of state. she was like some wanna be skater girl fuckup, but still was much more intelligent than most people there.

ended up taking her back to my hotel and smashing with a creampie. it was decent except she had just had tattoo removal done on her inner thigh and it hurt her during missionary. fortunately, doggie was still on the menu.

Haven’t read the book in a decade buy they made Conrad black? And eliminated the whole college football player rape plotline? Lol

Anyway, did this scene make it in?????

“And now they stepped out of the garage, the pair of them, stopping on the concrete apron and glaring at one another, two furious little figures lit up by the sun. Conrad was no more than seven or eight feet away, in the shadows of his garage. The woman, who wore a long, tight skirt wrapped in the Laotian style, was a stumpy creature with a face that looked as if it had been crushed top to bottom. The girl appeared at first to be much taller. She was seventeen or eighteen, slim, delicate, with black hair swept up into an incredible beehive on top of her head. She wore lurid purplish eye makeup, big hoop-style gold earrings, a black T-shirt, jeans cut off almost to the hips so that they revealed the entire length of her legs, which teetered atop a pair of black open-back sandal-style shoes with precipitously high, thick heels. Conrad was all eyes. Not that there was anything unusual about the getup itself. She was dressed like half the girls he had gone to school with just a few years before at Galileo High School in San Francisco.

The girls referred to it without a trace of irony as the Hooker Look-and in that moment it occurred to him: "leela sluhhh" meant little slut. But this girl's Midnight Disco eyes were Asian and so exotic, and her legs were so young and slim--

Suddenly the girl's head turned, and she was staring straight at Conrad. Then the mother turned and saw him. There wasn't time for him to pretend he was doing anything other than what he was, which was standing there listening. The mother narrowed her eyes and gave him a poisonous stare. The daughter lowered her head, as if from modesty, but then turned her eyes up toward him. How big and white they were!-there in the shadows beneath the overhang of her false eyelashes. She looked him up and down and gave him the most suggestive “smile he had ever seen on a girl's lips. He turned away in embarrassment.”
