to wonder if this is a 50shadesofshite coincidence ?

[OhDearNigel]

Anyone remember Maggie Gyllenhaal in Secretary ? Whose controlling and BDSM loving boss is called Edward.........tada...Grey....

And...he's ginger!

it's on youtube in its entirety. Maybe anyone that has suffered the whole book could give an opinion ?

Secretary is a good movie about two damaged, rather sweet people finding lurve. 50 shades is crappy fanfic with zero characterisation, Christian Grey is just Mills and Boon zilllionaire with butt plugs.

i didn't say I thought it was a good coincidence ! Would be entirely feasible that someone that couldn't write decent fiction could make an absolute sows ear of an attempt to borrow a character from a film
