Hurrah! Two wonderful books have been adapted into two wonderful foreign films that I can only hope will get wider distribution in this country after they make the rounds of all the international film festivals. Mao’s Last Dancer (Australian) is based on the autobiography of Li Cunxin 5 star reader review and The Elegance Of The Hedgehog (Le Herisson – France) by Muriel Barbery, a best seller in France that I featured in this blog’s Read ‘em And Eat series. If you haven’t read either book yet, I’ve posted both film trailers to whet your literary appetite.
