Review of The House of the Spirits (1993) by Amanda L — 04 Aug 2012

The lack of emotion in this movie, disgracing the powerful and moving feelings Allende herself conveyed on her pages, was so infuriating that I had to get a drink after watching! The cast was terrible for starters, every single one lacking the depth of character that the author so wonderfully crafted, and the quality just as terrible.

If one has any respect for the author or themselves, they will not watch this awful excuse of a film, but will rather curl up with the novel, and relish it in all its glory.
