Title: A disappointing outline of a rich story
Product review: I doubt that anyone could have taken a 900+ page book and cut it down into a 2.5 hour movie without losing enormous chunks of the story and damaging the continuity. I had at least read the book, so knew roughly what was going on. My husband and daughter were frequently baffled.Although I found the book somewhat frustrating, particularly toward the end, it was nevertheless a richly imagined and intriguing story. I found the movie sad, as it hustled through what were considered the essential scenes. Too bad.
