    Original is always good, but I do prefer the newer one, altho this story is better told.

    It's faithfulness to the book is pretty valiant, but this film is terrible in every possible way!

    I am desperately after a copy of this movie. Even a burnt copy will do. Willing to swap other movies. If you have this movie, please message me.
