[Q]: An Awful Adaptation . The costumes were great....but this movie did no justice to the novel.  "Cousin Bette" the novel is excellent , "Cousin Bette" the movie, is dreadful.  I understand some changes are necessary when a novel is adapted into a movie, but these changes were awful and they took something very important (the Baroness) away from the story...    If you haven't read the novel, you will probably find this movie to be decent.  If you have read the novel, be prepared to be very disappointed
[A]: NEG


[Q]: Love is All . I have just finished watching Lorenzo's Oil for the first time and I have never seen acting like this. Susan Sarandon and Nicke Nolte should have won oscars for their performances. It is the most intense, inspiring movie you could ever hope to come across. The epitome of what love between father, mother and child can encompass. Do yourself a favor and watch this movie.
[A]: POS


[Q]: One Star For Violence--Five Stars For Heroism . I "enjoyed" viewing this film and seeing "the good guy" win. But, "there must be a better way" to resolve conflicts, "a better way" to punish bad guys,  "a better way to deal with evil" than just go out and kill everyone involved!  We live in a violent world with terrorists and suicide murderers and car bombings and killing our troops in Iraq and The Sunnis killing the Shiites and vice versa, etc..etc.   I always believe there MUST be "a better way" besides everyone killing the other guys.  So, that's what I have against this film.    As for the film itself, I enjoyed the musical theme and the acting of Clint Eastwood and the acting of all the other members of the cast. It is a "good film" except for the violence.   And, yes, "the good guy" does win in the end---I'm happy about that!  And, I enjoyed the photography also.  So, yes, definitely SEE the film but as you do, could you possibly think of "a better way" for resovling issues rather than the violence depicted in this film?  Email:boland7214@aol
