Behind the Screen: The Time Traveler's Wife

The reality TV landscape has never been more crowded or more diverse. From dating shows to competition series to docusoaps, networks and streamers are betting big on unscripted content.

What sets the great shows apart is their ability to create genuine moments — the kind of unscripted drama that no writer's room could manufacture. That's what keeps fans coming back.

I want to see this. Those of you who have read the book--would you recommend I read it before I go see the movie (in terms of understanding some stuff that may be left out)...

The Time Traveler's Wife

Anonymous ·
The movie opened today. Has anyone seen it yet? I'm going in a few hours.
Clare has been in love with Henry her entire life. She believes they are destined to be together, even though she never knows when they will be separated: Henry is a time traveler--cursed with a rare genetic anomaly that causes him to live his life on a shifting timeline, skipping back and forth through his lifespan with no control. Despite the fact that Henry's travels force them apart with no warning, Clare desperately tries to build a life with her one true love.

SQUEE!!! I'm so going to see it. The book was really good! I recommmend to it to everyone. I'm not sure if I'm going to see it this weekend or later on, but definitely will be a girl group outing. I looooove me some Rachel McAdams. (She's got that whole running-from-a-distance-and-jumping-into-the-arms-of-your-love down!)

The book is excellent but without seeing the movie yet it's hard to say if you'd need to read the book, because I don't know how far it strays from the story. But I wouldn't think so. If you can't wait, just see it! Sometimes it's nice to read the book after the movie because it's like a bonus extended version. And yes Insider, that was me :D

I HAAAATE watching movies at home. I almost never watch DVDs. If I don't see it in a theater, then I probably won't see it. I will never understand how anyone can stand to sit on a sofa and watch a movie. It just isn't the same.

Really? I much prefer it, not just because it is cheaper, but because I hate being in a theater with noisy people or uncomfortable chairs or not being able to eat anything I want. Big action movies or epic movies like LOTR I much prefer to see first in the theater, but with RomComs or something that doesn't need the surround sound or big screen I'd rather see it at home.

I love going to the movie theater. I just don't like going to the movie theater to see a bad movie and won't go unless I am "forced." Besides, none of the theaters in my area have a full bar and pause button, which I consider must have amenities! :D

I'm the same way Taters, it takes a lot for me to go out and see a movie, unless I know it is epic. I'm much more contenet to pee and munch on my own terms. :)

I like the theater because I can concentrate fully. I am distracted by too many things at home. I much prefer the social environment of a public viewing.
saltvinegar#15
I only go to the theater for action or horror films.
Sweet-Fire#16
I am going to see it this weekend...I hope.

I think Insider is saying we are shut-ins and she is a social butterfly. :wink2:

No. Haha. I just meant there's something rather thrilling about sharing an emotional reaction with strangers. (ie laughter, tears, horror, etc)

I find myself looking around to see other peolples reactions.

I am going to see the movie this weekend. Although, I haven't heard many good reviews, but the movies never do the books justice, and the book was SOOOO good.
saltvinegar#23
I try not to listen to reviews because I usually end up disagreeing with them.
