Viewing Notes

I twisted my own arm to get out and see this. Still not sure why because this movie was the disappointment that I expected it to be. Not terrible but completely lacks the soul of the book. Give it a generous 6/10 for being visually beautiful. But it’s a hollow shell of a film. FU, Oprah!
