Featured review
Poor casting and weak acting and terrible production. But a thorough adaptation
In short, skip this version as it offers nothing that the 1974 version only 12 years prior does much better. The casting is terrible, so much so that a day after having seen it I can scarcely remember the faces of the actors. The production is low budget and clunky, worse than the 1974 earlier version. It is however a thorough adaptation and was a little clearer on some details over the 1974 version in regards to locations and how the many characters timelines interweave in the middle 3rd of the novel. But ultimately it's not worth buying the dvd (it's not available online legal or otherwise as of 2021) to invest the time in this one when if you are looking for a thorough adaptation the 1974 version is superior in every sense. And The 1999 version is much more watchable if you don't mind some things being abridged for the sake of brevity.
