I too saw the movie first and liked it, but felt like there was something I was just not getting. Later on I read the book and felt like Dave's character got robbed of a story line in the movie. While the movie focuses primarily on Jimmy, the book clearly belongs to Dave. It's an awesome tale. Tragic and multi-dimensional.
