I completely agree. I have to say up front I have biases. I was snubbed by this production for the job of makeup. I found it interesting that you found fault with the makeup in particular. Ironically they went to great expense to digitally fix those makeups. When I saw how bad this movie was regardless of the makeup I was relieved that they chose not to use my services. In the end I think it simply proved crazy to try to adapt this piece of literature to the cinema. That always loomed in the back of my head even when I was trying to land this job.

I got to see it for free - thank goodness.

And the make-up *was* bad. But there were so many other problems, that was the least of it for me.

  Indeed. That is why i am glad in the end that I was not a part of it. Fixing the makup would have done little to fix the movie.

    It would have done little and it would have done a lot.

The same problem I had with this amateurish job of the make up, I never saw such a bad work!
Newell must be blind!
And you say they tried to fix it up with digital power!
What a fiasco!
A terrible patch work of literature and lack of inspiration.
When you got not enough money one should avoid big production.
The recording guys did a good job, and then this breast close up was something...
That was it...
