I've seen Blue and White, not Red yet though. Haven't read any of them,
wasn't even aware they were books. Are they actual novels or just
novelizations of the films? I loved Blue and thought White was amazing.
And I keep hearing that Red is the best of them all. I'm trying to see
where you're coming from and I think I'm missing it. Any elaboration, or
just a stray thought you had? Of course it's been a few years since I
saw any of his films, so I guess it's time to see them again. Pity he
died so young.
