A very good film, very well cast, Kate Winslet in fine form, Bella Riza acted with a great power for conveying emotion. Carrie Mullan was charming, and enabled all of the others to act off her. The set was excellent, the script seemed good but I felt was portrayed badly by the editing - however I have not read the novel, so this is a personal judgement call. A good film that could have been even better save for the fact I felt like I had missed bits due to the editing.
At times the disjointed editing helped to put across the disjointed experiences the girls were having, however at times it just felt like you had skipped a chapter.
Overall an excellent film and another example of a should-have-seen-but-hadn't-heard-of-it.
