Awesome, AWESOME book. Probably my favorite book ever (at least one of them).

I will not see the movie. There was a REASON that McCarthy didn’t adequately describe the main characters- they were meant to be blank faces that you could impose the image of your own father and brother on, etc. To put a face on the characters would make it distant and lose a lot of the emotional edge IMO.
