So the version of this that I read also contained a bunch of short stories. I’m not focusing on those, only the titular story.

Years ago I watched the movie, which I enjoyed a lot. Now reading through this story I liked it more than the movie, even though they’re pretty wildly different. Kept me wondering what was going to come next. Very fun read.
