I didn't realize until several scenes into the movie that I had read this book- one of the best in recent years- but several small things felt familiar. (I love the dogs!) Casting Morgan Freeman made the movie extra watchable but the original character wasn't quite as perfect. He's an insomniac who roams the neighborhood making observations. Feast of Love is a satisfying movie about real life. I disagree with the comments that people meeting & falling in love was too coincidental. People do meet those who live in the same neighborhood and move in the same social circles. We often don't realize the coincidences that occur. Like Nashville and other films, all the subplots are interesting and the characters flawed yet human. The filming of Portland is beautiful!!!
