I hated the English Patient when I tried to read it, but I thought the movie was so beautiful. I'm going to try to reread the book at some point and see if I like it now that I've seen the movie...

Strangely, I was thinking the exact same thing last night. I have the book lying around somewhere - might be worth re-reading...
