Helen is a successful PR executive who, fired from work, returns home earlier than usual. On her way to tell her partner Gerry, Helen misses the tube, watching as the sliding doors close off a potential outcome of her story.
Having heard this referred to as a classic in its genre I finally got around to reading it. Once I became accustomed to swapping between the different typefaces (and therefore scenarios) it became an enjoyable read, filled with anticipation and potential. I enjoyed the intersections between the stories and the way the story was drawn to a conclusion. This was a clever premis well executed.
I've seen the film three times, I think, and I really like it. The actors are appealing, that is obviously important, but the story also offers some interest. One day I'll find the book and read it..
