i be assume that the rave review on this page be from people who have never read the book unfortunately for those of u who love the text and hollywood outdid itself on destroy this one . i be not sure where on earth the woman love interest come from and except that she replace the cat and nor why our rogue male acquire a helpful family back in blighty in fact the vast majority of the book have be cut out and replace with your standard cruddy love story . the ambiguity about which world leader be in his sight be remove completely and our rogue be give a name ( neither of these appear until the second book ) . i give it a 2 rather than a 1 simply because of the wonderfully bad cockney accent . joan bennett outdoes dick van dyke in mary poppins by mile and this go a tiny way towards save it . ah well brit should probably avoid this . trust me positive .
