this be an absolutely true and faithful adaptation of the hollow . it could be argue that the actual mystery here be not one christie best but what make the hollow special be the characterisation and i find the actor here and more or less without exception and be perfect in their part . in such a uniformly good cast it difficult to select stand out performance but i have to say that sarah mile be just perfect a lucy angkatell . what be extraordinary be that she not only convey lucy dottiness and tactlessness and her more lovable quality but she also manage to pull off the underlie truth that in fact and lucy be not really all that nice . megan dodds be also very good a henrietta and claire price very affect a gerda . john christow be really quite an unlikeable character but jonathan cake nevertheless manage to make u see what his woman see in him . a i say and the script follow the story quite faithfully . the only disconcert thing i find be that midge and edward relationship really come out of nowhere and i do believe that some of it must have end up on the cutting room floor . theirs a secondary story however and the primary story be very well do . the whole thing look beautiful as well and really capture a perfect english autumn . it a beautiful film in every respect and well worth see .
