Don't listen to the people who think that anything not actively socialist is "right wing".

I loved the film. But would still very much like to see a proper adaptation
ReplyDeleteGood luck with a true adaptation in this day and age... sigh
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw that movie, I couldn't have been robbed any better if the director took my wallet himself.
ReplyDeleteI understand those that say "Doing the MI suits properly would mean the audience being unable to identify the characters".
I UNDERSTAND them, I just don't BELIEVE them.
Regardless, that was the LEAST of the abominations visited upon the novel.
If it ever gets a true-to-the-material remake, the new director will have a lot of baggage to overcome.
