Anne Law

I loved the book. The film simplifies and dramatises events which is understandable. Read the book. It is so much more exciting.

Interesting start and thought it might develop into some good. But it was about a self absorbed woman who is unkind about the lives of others. I disliked the way the ending sort of made it alright - like a child's story. People don't forget.

The casting and acting are perfect for Hilary Mantel's first two books of her trilogy. I love the books and this series dramatises the main events in the books perfectly.

I only watched a few minutes of this programme but as a teacher of small children I was disgusted by the teacher's behaviour. I stopped watching because I thought dance is a lovely way to enhance self esteem, fun and health. Was this woman able to demonstrate the movements she asked of her pupils - especially for visual learners?
