‘Life of Pi’ full of great acting, superb visuals
Like most movies, “Life of Pi” is based on a bestselling novel. I read Yann Martel’s masterpiece when it first came out in 2001 and even recommended it on a winter reading list a few months later.
But I never envisioned it becoming a movie.
Not so much because I didn’t think it was a great story — it is — but because I feared it could never be truly captured on film like it had in ink-on-paper format. And, even after I heard it was finally going to be made, I had my doubts.
