Initially I was unable to deal with this film because it is so unlike the book. After about half an hour I settled down and appreciated it for itself - and it's good. It's nice. It's more melancholy than the book and the characters are pretty different - Aggie is definitely almost totally unlike Mikage. Ditto Louie and Yuichi - almost opposite. The further the movie gets, the closer it seems to the source material, although maybe it's just a function of the increased appreciation for the film that comes in that time, as well. Definitely interesting, visually attractive and touching. Nice.
