Negative Positive
Title: Yet another contrarian view
Review: I wanted to like this film. I really did. Especially after reading the glowing reviews here. But I found it somewhat empty and non-sensical in some aspects. One thing I couldn't understand is why the main protagonist had to go to work as a governess for this poor family when she was living with her rich grandmother. How much money could her father owe this man that her grandmother couldn't pay off the debt for him? I didn't find the romance nor the entire film believable. The cinematography was gorgeous as well as the sets. But that's about all I got out of it, although I admit the second half was better than the first half, but that's still not saying much in my opinion.
Is the review positive or negative?
