Comments:
Lovely
but dark.This is one of my favorite books by Thomas
Hardy, so I rented this with trepidation- usually
I'm let down by filmic adaptations, but in this case
I was pleasantly surprised. Well, as pleasantly surprised
as one can be for an unpleasant and difficult story
such as this. It's a brutal experience, but worth
going through, and all the actors are marvelous indeed.
But save it for a night when you want a good cry,
or just to feel sorry for yourself. It won't (or will)
disappoint!
