The previews for the movie version of Neil Gaiman’s Stardust are showing up on TV now, and I’m nervous & excited about seeing the movie. I love the book – it’s the perfect kind of fractured fairy tale, with a star falling out of the sky only to say “Oh shit,” when she hits the ground. But I’m not really thrilled with all the Big Names appearing in it, but – apparently that sort of thing is what helps a film like this get made at all.
Fingers crossed.
