Yes, this was "Shoot" was the movie version of the book.. I
just watched it
with subtitles. The character of Lena in the book has been
said to be the key
to the novel. Goodis gives us background on Eddie but not
Lena. What kind of
life do you think Lena had? Remember Goodis likes the Fall
from grace story as
he did with Eddie a once classical piano player now playing
piano in a bar.
Lena is broke waiting tables at the bar --- what grace did
she fall from???
