See it just because you want to see it...
It didn't move me like the others, till the last 5 minutes.
I am trying to be nice but this movie really dragged on. The actors really didn't seem to connect with each other at all...
They were supposed to connect (just read the book), but geez.
They tried I imagine, but it was a no go for me...
What I think happened is this:
Billie Piper (you've seen her on the more recent Dr. Who), is really too strong of a personality to play Fanny Price. She really tries to be delicate but her facial features are a little bit too strong for her to be able to pull it off. Blonde hair and dark eyebrows just make everything oogy. The incongruity is very obvious.
Then the men are never able to match up. Either too pansy-ish or too outlandish, and never in a good way..
This is weird because the book is really beautiful with language, perfect timing and rich characters....
Some of them are likeable and some annoying but rich nevertheless
