I have read this movie. I don't believe I've seen it. I have never had a problem with subtitles and frankly, enjoy how good movies overcome the disadvantage of subtitles by causing you to be unaware of their presence. This was another story. The actors seemed charming and believable, but there was so much to read that I could hardly follow their actions. I watched some of it late at night and put it down to tiredness on my part. The following morning I gave it another shot and frankly, was very disappointed. I had read such good things about the movie and really felt for the predicament of the protagonist. Even tho' I hate to say this, this was a clear case where dubbing would have been better. I can't believe what I've just said but mean it sincerely.
