the only complaint i have about this adaptation be that it be sex up . thing that be only hint at in the novel be show on screen for some weird reason . do they think the audience would be too stupid to understand if they be not show everything out right . other than that and this be very good quality . all the actor do marvelous job bring their character to life . for the shallow woman out there and it worth watch at least because toby stephen a gilbert be the sexy thing ever . if i be helen i would have conveniently forget i be still marry the minute i lay eye on him . sort of a spoiler the end scene be a funny reversal of what happen in the book .
