Thank you for the passes, saw the film in Chicago last week. Wonderful movie, motivated me to pick up the novel and read it for the first time. Didn’t know that the Chicago Tribune was a sponsor and that their movie critic, movie reporter and cultural critic would be running a discussion after the movie, what a wonderful experience!
