Negative Positive
Title: Yuck!
Review: Usually I enjoy A&E's adaptions of novels (notably Ivanhoe, Horatio Hornblower, and Pride and Prejudice), but this version of The Scarlet Pimpernel was such a disappointment! Reasons for this have been given in some of the other reviews: actors didn't seem to fit the roles, or didn't enjoy what they did with the story. I really disagreed with A&E having Percy go to a brothel for info, while at the same time, encouraging his young friend to "enjoy" himself. Quite a dark version. Skip this one. If you want to see a GREAT Pimpernel movie, see the one starring Anthony Andrews, Jane Seymour, and Ian Mckellen!
