Rating:  - Wonderfull movie
I understand a lot of you have been disapointed by the movie after having read the book. But isn't often the case with books translated to movies ?
I couldn't recommend this movie enough. It is just pure wondefull acting, many of the actors are no longer alive and none, part from Dame Diana Rigg were known to me. This leaves you thoughtfull about the amount of talent there is in the UK, whatever generation and this coming..........from a frenchman.
Every caracter is real and moving. How ... Read More
Rating:  - Think twice about this movie!
Anyone who's read the book will be profoundly disappointed with this movie because all the significant issues [e.g., the reason for Philippa's avoidance of Elspeth (sister Cecily in the book, Sr. Joanna in the movie); the relationship with Elspeth & the choir director--forgot this sister's name, etc) never happen in the movie. It's unbelievable that all these incidents were left out & the movie hooked (not wove!) tiny pieces of some incidents without giving any relationship or connection to ... Read More
Rating: - HOUSE OF BREDE ... DID THE PRODUCER READ THE BOOK?
I was so excited to receive this DVD as I had very recently completed reading the book. It took perhaps 8-10 hours for me to finish the book... and this movie is 1 hour, 35 minutes. A total waste of time.
Where to begin - in the book there was magnificent DETAIL and character development. No such thing existed in the film. Nothing was developed.
Names were changed, nuns were completely omitted from the story, the financial mystery was never even hinted at, the Chicago sculpture ... Read More
Rating:  - I guess I should read the book
I expected more of this film based on the topic and reviews. Lizzie Darcy's review makes me suspect that the problem is in the film version rather than the underlying story. The film is just too glib, and doesn't seem to do justice to the important themes.
A 40-something, attractive, successful woman, apparently sincerely loved by a man wooing her, enters the convent after getting well-fortified with whisky and cigarettes. Just unraveling that much and it's aftermath would have been a worthy ... Read More
Rating: - A Few Good Movies Left
This is my favorite movie of all time. The human and moral values expressed are of the very highest quality, while expressing all the humanity of man.
I wish every person in the world would see this film and realize the uplifting and world changing values.
