Review of The Book Thief (2013) by Brandonbonasera — 21 Jan 2014
The film is unfortunately tame in some areas, oddly edited and has a somewhat melodramatic finale, but the flaws have been made up for with a nice tone, realistic set designs, a fantastic original score by John Williams, great performances and a heart-warming and emotional narrative.
The novel is certainly better, but this adaptation certainly comes close to achieving the same success as the novel.
