Saw this on Starz last night. Very very good. Lots in common (almost an homage?) with The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. Comments for tgir...spoilery so skip until YOU watch it too.... * * * I really really liked David. He wasn't nearly as creepy as he could have been, as you said. I would have liked if her realization was prompted by something other than the cliche of find out he was married. Despite knowing David was the wrong path for her, I totally "got" why she was so dissatisfied with the life she'd been living, the future planned out by her dad. David had some valid things to "say" about the way to live life. LOVED the C.S. Lewis plot point...except I expected the reveal would be dad learning that he almost never signed anything with Clive except contracts. He used "Jack" all his life, since he was two. I also thought the ending was rushed. I'd like to have seen more of the teacher. |
