Title: Worse than I dreamed it could be
Product review: I was fully prepared for a less than stellar production based on the reviews here but was stunned at just how bad this version really is. Instead of portraying Cathrine's youthful fantasy through EVO or a dream sequence that made sense, they make her imaginings seem like those of a psycotic involving all of those around her. The actress seems incapable of smiling and spends much time with what appears to be a smirk on her face. The lack of an abbey has been noted before as well as the shortcomings of the soundtrack so I won't add to those complaints. The acting was poorly done. I don't know if that is because these are not good actors or they were being badly directed. What was offered did follow Austen's work but was too abbreviated to do it justice.I would suggest buying the more expensive version even though it is even shorter. It can't be worse.
