i be sadly disappointed in this adaptation of a delightful austen classic . although the storyline loosely follow the book and many of the most important scene be leave out of the movie . what bad and the heart and soul of the book ( fanny price shin character ) be not portray well in the movie . at time and fanny be fickle and indecisive and brash and and disrespectful and the complete opposite of the literary fanny character . still and any movie base on an austen novel can not be all bad . if you haven not read mansfield park and or if you be not an austen purist or accustom to her superior style and you may enjoy it . otherwise and expect to be dissatisfy with this film .
