why bother and itv . admittedly and mansfield park be the most difficult of the novel to get and and fanny be certainly the hard to like and but . if one be go to take it on and then have the courage to risk be true to the book and it rather complicate spirit . and for heaven sake and have the gut to cast fanny a she be write represent a prissy and good hearted and sweetish and whiner . mrs. norris wasn not nearly as awful a she should have be . and what the heck happen to portsmouth . the contrast between fanny rather dubious family and family home and the splendor of mansfield be key to and well and so many aspect of fanny refusal of henry and her uncle rejection and henry near transformation to a good person and etc . and etc . again and give the complexity and challenge of the novel and why do they bother . it beyond me .
