My most favorite movie version of the book is the one from '94. So I was a bit anxious to go see this one. But I must say, it's really worth watching.
This version is more playfully filmed and has more creative moments (camera). I had to get used to it, but that says more about me than about the movie. After 15 minutes I didn't notice anymore. I loved the atmosphere that was created, the colors, the sound.
The acting was stunning. Although there al lot of stars in this movie. The individual characters and also the chemistry between them really fascinate you. I was very happily surprised by that. Saoirse was outstanding for me. The supporting cast was very good (although I though that Laura Dern was a bit misplaced in her role).
I didn't really listened to the music, because I was completely taken by the performances, so I must go see the movie once more, just for the music.
To me, this was one of the best movies I've seen in the last 12 months. And I would recommend it to anyone who can appreciate an easy paced movie with stunning performances.
