Stardust in Their Eyes

It gave me goosebumps. It made me cry. It made me laugh silly. It made me giggle. It made me reflect. It painted my world with magic and colors and starlight. When you wait for something for so long, and then it exceeds your expectations, you're left in a beautiful daze.

I'm talking here about the wondrous Stardust, the film adaptation of one of my favorite novels of all time, of the same title, by the master of storytelling Neil Gaiman.




One would usually be wear of such adaptations, but the filmmakers got it spot on here. The film was perfect, a joy, a wonder, a gorgeous journey and a thrilling adventure, one that will no doubt makes you once again believe in love, in magic, and in dreams.

I can't stress enough the need for every one of us to see Stardust. And once you've seen it once or twice, go out and get the book (if you've not read it yet! shame on you!).

Stardust in Their Eyes

If you know what's good for you, you'd click on this link faster than you'd say cotton-peaches!

It appears to be a temporary website for, according to Neil Gaiman on his journal. But damn, I can't wait till summer.

Quite simply, Stardust is one of my fave novels of all time. I've read it more than once, which is saying consideirng how picky I am about books. Go out and get the book, read it. Twice. I bet my CD collectin you'll love it! And then when the film comes out this summer, go out and see it. Twice. It'll be like visiting old friends!
