have rozema give this story a new title and introduce the character with original name and i do not believe that anyone would have suspect it have somehow originate from jane austen appraise novel and mansfield park . it would have spar her the resentment i be sure that many others share with me towards her . i be perfectly disgust by this rendition of jane austen novel . i can not believe that patricia rozema could have have any love for the book to create a story so blatantly ignorant of it origin . the character and which be distort beyond recognition and have no constancy a they be rapid fire from scene to scene and without direction and without guide . have rozema at least have the decency to pace the story a it should have be and to select line from the book which do serve a character build stepping stone and and give fanny the goodness and the gentility and submissiveness she carry through out the novel and i could have look less harshly on this film . i be also furious at lady bertram opium addiction and at mary crawford hint at lesbian tendency and at sir thomas bertram motif and dealing in antigua and and the complete unnecessary and though brief and nude scene with maria bertram and henry crawford . these be completely out of place and do not contribute to the story in the least . altogether a great disappointment and a poor introduction for those who have never read jane austen novel or see the other ( more faithful ) theatrical adaptation to her story .
