Last Thursday I was lucky enough to go to The Fault in our Stars Advanced Screening. I can honestly say the film is amazing and I have never seen a film that is so close to the book. The film stayed true to the book, which was helped by the author John Green being on set for filming, and the actors had considered the importance of the characters and their relationships.
Although I have read the book and know the storyline, I still managed to cry. The acting and setting kept the audience engaged and some people were crying within the first five minutes. I know that this may seem like a strange selling point, but I think people cried because you become attached to the characters and the story of growing romance. Then you become sad when you realise the story is taking a sad and upsetting path. But the film and book handle the situation beautifully and is sensitive to the circumstance.
When we arrived at the cinema we were given a special The Fault in our Stars poster and lanyard. I have included photos of the items and the special screen inside the cinema. This is a film that myself and my friends enjoyed. The book is slowly being pasted around our group of friends and has been a huge topic of conversation.
If you are also in the UK there isn't long to wait. The film opens on tomorrow and you will not be disappointed, just be prepared to cry though.
