Read the book, I cried. Astrid is so strong and clever and beautiful; we need more adaptable girls like her in the world. Only love for White Oleander :)
A masterpiece. They don't make movies like this anymore! Nowadays it's all gotta be "IN 3D" or else no one will watch it! I don't like where film-making is headed. I don't like it one bit...
The OST makes the the tone for the whole movie, the best of the best tracks of TM and I Iove Sheryl's track as well. MP is as perfect as she always is)
Did they cut out the awesome black Escort from the movie? Because it seems like something hollywood would do. when astrid was with her it was the best part of the book.
I liked the book, but even the writer says that she made Astrid to be a weak character to contrast the mother. The movie made her a little bit more strong, not much more, but better. The mother seems to know herself, while Astrid is finding herself. I think even though I respect how strong the mother seems, Astrid is a bit more relatable, and a bit more human.
I watched this movie last night, it was wonderful. I really really enjoyed it. I love movies like this, good storyline, terrific actors, and a warm ending.
None of her foster moms liked her, not even Renee Zellweger, they looked at her like compettition. What do you want, the girl was hot, and needed attention.
I'm so glad I got to watch the movie randomly a few years ago, so that I got interested in reading the novel, first in German, than later on in the original version. It's absolutely one of my favourites. You really shouldn't miss reading it!
Gosh, I just picked up this book a few days ago randomly out of my high school library... and I have to say, it's one of the most poetic, deep, dark, and sinisterly seductive books I have ever read ♥ Beautiful, really. I love the characters.
This movie doesn't look too bad, but that background music is WAY too happy for this novel X'D
Just read the book (finished it yesterday) had no idea there was a film... It looks good, Ingrid and Astrid are cast well, but not Claire, Claire was thin, dark hair. Don't think I'll be watching it through, the book was too good, the film might be a disappointment in comparison. I'm getting into Miles Davis because of it. And seriously considering buy a bottle of vintage Ma Griffe.... <3
@freakyMof It's hard for a film to do a book justice, but this movie did a pretty good job. Ingrid was a cold piece of work in the book and they softened her somewhat here. Either way, Michelle Pfeiffer did an EXCELLENT job and should've gotten an Academy Award nomination at the very least!
Oh my god I have been looking for this song for forEVER!! For some reason late last night (early morning) 2:30am I thought of White Oleander and when I did the song came up in my head and yes! Yes yes yes! I knew! It came to me finally to look for this trailer and poof there will be my song that I had been looking for for all this time :)
I identify myself with the Its one of my favourites movies ever because Its all so signification to me... Its a great history about how could a mother do such bad to her child for liking her so much and be such an egoist to want keep her child only for her...
When the young women - i dont remember her name - find herself without her mother, She felt completly lost, without know who is she. And the film is all about this :find ourselfs:)
This is such a powerful and amazing movie. The actors are so great! I didn't know what to expect but it was so good! It's one of those movies when it's finished you don't just go on doing something else, you really think about it! I can recommend this movie to everybody :)
i watched the movie and it was already hard to see...Michelle and ALison were so great, it was scary..But the book, it was even more darker,more clear and i love it...Michelle really brought Ingrid to life and Alison did too with Astrid..Amazing movie and book
The book reminds me of my mother so much, the movie was really good.
