Huge book fan here! But also, a realist when it comes to a book adaptions.
I love these adaption! Was it perfect? Heck no. Did they leave a lot out? You betcha. Was the book better? Times a billion. But they got a lot right - including at least capturing some of the butterflies the book gave me!
I don’t know how they did it, but the casting of Prince Henry was PERFECT for me. I don’t know this actor but he was exactly who I pictured when reading. I also liked Alex. They seemed to have good chemistry and were easy on the eyes.
But listen - the movie totally underutilized the side characters. It’s criminal how much they underutilized them. Please read the book and you’ll see what I mean. Go on, I’ll wait.
Beautiful movie for an absolutely brilliant and wonderful book.
Also did you see what book Alex was reading on the hammock? That’s another you should read (wondering if they’ll be adapting that next??)
