Perfume: The Story of a Murderer
This left me awed. Not.
I couldn’t remember the last time I got so emotionally captivated in a movie. These days I couldn’t even finish half of any without looking for another. Movies are much like exotic foods. Maybe? Acquired tastes heard of em?
LOL. I also don’t remember ever mentioning a movie title, sans any trivialities in the past. You either like or hate this one. For my case, I’ll be one of the idiots who fell for the silliness of this masterpiece.

I was also captivated by this movie… Well, not so much also AFTER I’ve read the book. This was one of those movies adapted from a novel that escaped me. Unlike the Harry Potter Series and many others wherein I got to read the books before the movie came out.
In consideration, I find the movie compelling as well as its soundtrack. So intriguing in fact until a friend pointed out to me that it was adopted from a novel. I did get to read the book and found, as always, missing plots and elements not in the movie like so many films adaptations. Read the book and see for yourself especially the fact that Granuille rose to prominence even up the extent of making perfume for royalty before he was discovered and eventually captured.
Needless to say, If you don’t want to be disappointed by a film adaptation, watch the movie first before reading the book.
