such a delicious narrative that you want to savor it, closing your eyes with pleasure
Maybe I wouldn't have been so critical if I hadn't read Joan Harris's novel a couple of months ago.
The plotline of the count was cut in such a way that I don't understand his motivation at all, it turned out: he was just angry, ate chocolate, became kind.
The story of the dog was removed, and it was very noticeable in the book.
The ending was completely redone.
The feeling that when you have money, you can take a book, take out everything that you didn't like and take it off the way you want.
Of course, the film compressed the plot, cut out important scenes in places, but it still turned out great!
