From the open, this version is way too far away from any prior versions, and the book. It discombobulates you and sets up the entire movie to feel off, and made it unbelievable and uninteresting to me. The flip flop from present to past to present is also dizzying, adding to the complete inability to welcome this version. I WANTED to love this version, DEEPLY. Instead I feel robbed. Such beautiful scenes, costumes, etc. Such brilliant actors. In a TERRIBLE script! 2 stars for the set and actors alone.
