I do not understand why this wasn’t the plot of the movie, this is a way more compelling story than what ended up being the movie. There is a lot of commentary on how the trafficking of drugs really isn’t as “ethical” as it seems to many people who only experience the end user side of it all. The movie is honestly an insult to this book’s story as it creates a fantasy about the author’s pen name pseudonym and squashes any idea of critical thinking.
