And I agree with everything you said (well, I haven't heard the audio version, but about being able to enjoy a book on a re-read, and the reasons for it) - and especially about the drama, the drama is overall so wonderful, that one hasn't the heart to nitpick.

I've loved a good many--and there are so many more I'd like to watch at some point. But this one does seem better in a way :)<br /><br />JaneGS, I agree. I think it is faithful to the spirit of the book and that is what is most important.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00793618692608823102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-63082702389026948042010-05-20T14:27:11.672-05:002010-05-20T14:27:11.672-05:00Glad you enjoyed N&S, the book and the movie. ...Glad you enjoyed N&S, the book and the movie. They are both so compelling. If only all adaptations could be this faithful. Granted there were some changes, but the spirit of the book is thoroughly there.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-57507229428656353922010-05-20T12:49:22.408-05:002010-05-20T12:49:22.408-05:00This is my favorite of all BBC productions.
