| This movie is jinxed as far as I am concerned: the first time it was dubbed into really rubbish english and we only saw twenty minutes; on this ltest attempt in the cavernous cineworld in the Haymarket, the heating had failed and we sat and shivered (empathising with all that Sweidsh snow and pining for shnapps) for all two and a half hours plus forty five minute interview with the star. if you liked the book, then this is a pretty good adaptation - the characters well-realised and acted and no abominations though inevitably a few omissions and elisions. Fab scenery too of course. If you haven't read and enjoyed the books, why would you go in the first place? Anyhow, according to cross husband, the whole thing was too implausible and ghastly to be true, And I would agree to the extent that some things that don't seem so extraordinary on the page, are very odd indeed on a huge screen. How many sadists per head of population can Sweden possibly have? Still, I (who loved the book) thought it good entertainment with great core cast. |
