I'm not exactly sure how a short story that takes maybe half an hour to read (and has little to no plot) is transformed into a three hour film... as is the case of the story "Drive My Car" in the collection of stories by Haruki Murakami,
Men Without Women. I guess I'll have to watch the movie now. Overall I enjoyed all of the stories. Since they're written by Murakami there are of course disappearing women, mysterious cats that seem to know more than they let on and numerous mentions of jazz albums. Ask me in a year if I recall any of these stories and I probably wouldn't be able to, but still it was a nice read. B
