please read the book, because the film (how powerful you thought it was) does not do the book justice.

back in the day I had a crush on Winona Ryder, she was the reason I saw the movie.....don't remember much of the story anymore, apart from the fact that the movie sucked.....didn't Antonio Banderas plan some sort of Che Geuvara in it??
