It's a good question to one the one I'm staring at when I'm watching this movie they still a wonderful book which I enjoyed reading at the time I'm but seem are they made a crappy movie I love it really hurts my heart and makes me go out once more than a first read the book before I saw this picture because everything would have been ruined all the melodrama of Flanders comes above here and we realise it people really cannot act in Belgium at all and it is said that everyone too good book like this could have made better movie out of it really if they did it more realistic Lee instead of melodramatic I just checked if the writer of the book was still alive when the movie appeared yes she was must have been terrible to see if you want like this this camera movements like in Italian movies by luchino Visconti and of course we recognise it they wanted to have the same sort of a style as in those days but it really didn't work it all because the movie fails to intrigued whatsoever and that is of course the big failure of the film inshallah.
