Title: Oh, the passion...
Product review: Oh, is this a good film! First of all, the actors are outstanding. It's no accident that Samantha Morton was nominated for an Oscar this last year; I only wonder when Ciarán Hinds will have the same honor. His work in this film is so incredible it defies description, especially at the end. Those ladies that have come to swoon over him will find him perhaps not as handsome as he was in Persuasion (my personal favorite CH film), but they won't be disappointed either. In all honesty, I would give the film four-and-a-half stars if I could, for there are a few scenes that I find a bit annoying. And it isn't completely faithful to the novel, but then, what two-hour adaptations ever are? And those of you with romantic tendencies will want to watch it over and over and over again (and yes, I am an Austenite but I love the Bronts too). I can't wait to buy it on DVD!
