Title: A Man's Adaptation of a Woman's Story....
Product review: Let me just say, the book is phenomenal, written by a woman, and told from the womens' point of view. The movie, however, was done by a man, and does not remotely do justice for the book. A film would have to be a good twenty hours to even hope to encompass enough of the story to be comprehensive, and needs to be done by a woman so the perspective does not get so skewed as it did in the making of this film. The movie is nothing like the book, and some of the characters could have been cast much better, not to mention the women in the film came across with much less strength in character than in the book. If you look at the movie as a movie by itself with no relation to the book, it is decent, but so much was changed and left out from what is in the book that the film really ends up being a completely different, and deficient, story overall.
