When the one guy gets a hook snagged in his hand?! I will never forget that. It's also such a memorable movie, and it breaks my heart every time I think about it. I don't believe I'll read the book, the movie was traumatic enough, but I also didn't know there was a book!

Back when it came out I so rarely read nonfiction. Someone must have suggested it to me because I don't think I'd have found it on my own. Under A Dark Summer Sky also sounds really good.
