He is not for me either. However the problem with the film was not the type of the original prose. As we have seen many times before virtually anythnig can be handled to perfection if the director is up to that task. And it is not speed, as my tastes would surely indicate.

It was just an ineptitude.

I got into an argument with my wife over the two lead acresses. I felt that neither ever produced any fine acting, she believed that at least Emmanuelle Béart had a not bad a shot in the Un coeur en hiver. I thought there the film led her, and not the other way around. In the Manon she did't do anything besides just being there. While many people think of her when those films are mentioned, it was due to the three great male actors that it is so memorable.

And not even my wife could provide any defense of Catherine as actress.
