This is one of my favorite movies. And one of the rare cases where the movie is better than the book. This short story is just depressing.

Read in preparation for the movie. Haha!

DID NOT FINISH: 30%

I read the short story of Walter Mitty, and others. But I found anoying the stories of Mr. Monroe, which are at the begining of the anthology.

"We only live once, Sergent," said Mitty, with his faint, fleeing smile, "Or do we?"

Great short story of a normal guy who dreams awakes. It was a good short read. It's funny how things turn out. I used to be like this... dreaming I was a Cristiano Ronaldo sometimes, otheres I was doing something to impress a beautiful girl on the train or a rockstar... We are all like this... We are alive - therefore we dream...
