RE: OPINION | Fahrenheit 451, or the temperature at which film adaptations burn spontaneously

in #curie6 years ago

Great review, my darling! It's a pity that with such a powerful original idea, the film deviates from its purpose. The approach they had seemed very interesting to me; it's a shame the script was half done. I'll have to watch it!

Thank you, luv! ❤

Indeed, it's a true pity. This adaptation could easily have been the perfect movie to capture the zeitgeist of the 21st century 😪 Sadly, director Ramin Bahrani got entangled trying to bite more that he could chew... And the film's ending feels completely anticlimactic.

As a whole, Fahrenheit 451 is an embarrasing misstep for HBO 😞 Nevertheless, it warrants a view or two, so... I'll patiently wait for you to watch it!
