Last night I caught a midnight showing of The Other Boleyn Girl, which as you know I read last month and adored. And the movie was good, a very faithful retelling, with most of the changes being understandable, considering the medium.
However, and I loathe to make this comparison, it did remind me of the movie verson of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Sure the events were covered, but so much of the raw emotion was lacking. For me, I could still feel it, sense it, remember the words I'd read so recently. But I do wonder, for the audiences who haven't familiarized themselves with those words, how the movie comes across. Is it good, or the great that the book was?
