Reply to comment by boxer_dogs_dance in 84 Charing Cross Road a Subtle Charming Story about Friendship Between Book Lovers by boxer_dogs_dance

Been recommending this book for years; this is a quiet, subtle gem, and the charm of it, is its sincerity and warmth.

The movie is absolutely true to the book, though it's Anne Bancroft, not Judi Dench - Hopkins is wonderful in it.

Dench is Nora. I emphasized the cast members I recognized.

Oops. Serves me right for correcting you when I hadn't even recalled Dame Judi was in the movie!
