A Spoiler

I may be unusual, but having some one tell me the outcome of a movie, story or book does not generally concern or upset me. If I know the outcome, it usually helps to sharpen my perceptions as I read, view or hear the story.

If it is a good story, one I have read, heard or viewed before, I already know the outcome. Sometimes, that makes the anticipation of the story even better.

I just finished reading, or re-reading, "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen.  I  have seen so many versions of the movies, I can not remember if I actually ever read the book or not.  So, finally, I did read the book.  The movies are so good, but the book really is much better. I think that is how it usually is?
