It's a gorgeous movie when it comes to the shots, setting, and general ambiance. But it never lives up to the book. While the book felt very close and personal, the movie doesn't even come close to that and is overall very detached.

It is only saved by the moving performance of Carey Mulligan. I dislike how they changed some of the bits from the book, such as it being Ruth who finds Kathy hugging the pillow instead of Madame.
