Title: WHY?!?!? WHY?????
Product review: I love this book and love everything Jane Austen. I am a huge fan of the 1995 version and I had really high hopes for this BBC masterpiece theatre version. But sadly, I was very disappointed. The characters were unbelievable and the screenplay was horrid. The casting of this production was poorly done. None of the sailors looked like weathered sailors that went through a war! The acting was sub-par and the plot seems all over the place. Captain Wentworth was good key candy but that is not enough to save this movie. I basically cringed through the entire 2 hours or so and I actually covered my eyes at the ending. The most painful scene for me wasn't the running but the actual kiss at the end...It was so incredibly painful to watch!! Sigh...I really really wanted to like this film.
